You Blotted My Happy Schooldays

song: i blotted happy school days - hank williams



i blotted your happy school days



(e) when i entered that school room that mornin' in may,

i noticed you over the (b7) way,

and (e) then with your pen dear you painfully wrote,

you (b7) blotted my happy school (e) days.



first chorus



i blotted your happy school days,

i'm sorry i caused you this pain,

i'll ask god to forgive me and to guide me always,

for i blotted your happy school days.



the teacher was watchin' with a wondering eye,

she noticed your anguish and pain,



she knew it would hurt you to have sympathy,

with a heart that was breakin' in pain.



repeat first chorus



i have all the notes that you wrote to me,

i've folded and kept them with care,

they're all put away to be touched no more,

to save as a memory so dear.



when i passed by your coffin to take my last look,

i placed my last kiss on your brow,

i know you're in heaven with friends that are dear,

and i know that i'll meet you up there.



second chorus



for i blotted your happy school days,

i'm sorry i caused you this pain,

but i'll ask god to forgive me and to guide me always,

for i blotted your happy school days.
