Bubbles in My Beer

(Cindy Walker - Bob Wills - Tommy Duncan)



Tonight in a bar alone I'm sittin'

Apart from the laughter and the cheer

While scenes from the past rise before me

I'm watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



A vision of someone who loves me

Brings along solty tears to my eyes

I know that my life's been a failure

Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm seeing the road that I've travelled

A road paved with heartaches and tears

And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted

While watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



As I think of the hearts I have broken

And of the golden chances that have passed me by

The dreams that I dreamed now are empty

As empty as the bubbles in my beer...
