ACHING BREAKING HEART 

Well I have lived a lot and done my part of running round
And never did I think I?d let a sweet love get me down
But now I see how wrong I was, you?re part of every plan
Perhaps I?ll pay but come what may my heart?s at your command

Oh, this aching breaking heart of mine is crazy over you
And I?m afraid to let you know I love you like I do
For if you knew how much I care I know what you would do
You?d drop me like the others and go find somebody new

Last night I saw you darling in the arms of someone new
And I know that you don?t love him, you just want to make me blue
I guess you think that hurting me will make me love you more
But someday from you darling this old heart will lock its door

Oh, this aching breaking heart of mine is crazy over you
And I?m afraid to let you know I love you like I do
For if you knew how much I care I know what you would do
You?d drop me like the others and go find somebody new

ACT NATURALLY 

They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
All I got to do is act naturally.

I bet you I'm a gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
I can play the part so well.

I hope you come and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
All I got to do is act naturally.

--- Instrumental ---

I hope you come and see me in the movie
And bending down upon my bended knee
I'll play the part but I won't need rehearsing
All I have to do is act naturally.

Well, I bet you I'm a gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
I can play the part so well.

I hope you come and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
All I got to do is act naturally.

Yeah, all I got to do is act naturally...

AFTER CLOSING TIME 

Well you can find me servin' drinks inside a honky tonk
And I'll even play the jukebox on your dime
And sometimes I will dance with you to your favorite song
Yeah but she'll be mine after closin' time
She will smile at all the men and shake her pretty hips
And you can yell and say she look so fine
But I'm not looking for a man I'm looking for their tips
And then she'll be mine after closin' time
When they turn the lights out that's when I'll turn him on
Oh she can serve me love much better than wine
So when they close the doors I guess who takes me home
And she'll be mine after closin' time
[ guitar ]
Tomorrow night I'll still be there inside the honky tonk
And I'll still play the jukebox on your dime
Yeah as long as you keep buyin' drinks she'll smile and lead you on
But she'll be mine after closin' time
When they turn the lights out...
And she'll be mine after closin' time

AFTER I SING ALL MY SONGS 

When the show is over and every one is gone
That's when this lonely feelin' comes along
Everybody loves me while the show is goin' on
But I need someone to love me after I sing all my songs.

I smile and face the music while they just cheer me on
But this empty feeling keep on holdin' on
Lord I wish I had somebody just to be my only one
I need someone to hold me after I sing all my songs.

After I sing my songs, after the crowd is gone
I need someone to hold me after I sing all my songs.

--- Instrumental ---

After I sing my songs, after the crowd is gone
I need someone to hold me after I sing all my songs...

AFTER THE FIRE IS GONE 

(Both)
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

(George)
The bottle is almost empty
The clock just now struck ten
Darlin' I had to call you
To our favorite place again.

(Tammy)
I know it's wrong for us to meet
But the fires gone out at home
(Both)
And there' nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

(Tammy)
Your lips are warm and tender
Your arms hold me just right
Sweet words of love you remember
That the one at home forgot.

(George)
Each time we say it's the last time
But we keep hangin' on
(Both)
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone...

AFTER YOU 

So September follows August, I don't mind
So three and four and the fifth comes after two
Will anything mean anything, do I care what tomorrow
brings
I only wonder what comes after you.

After you when someone smiles at me I wonder what to
trust
After you I'll be suspicious of anything that's nice
I don't know that I'll get over you and if I ever do
I'll never doubt this much again, not after you.

Loving you it's just to good to last forever
So the world could end tomorrow I won't care
After you when someone tells me there's no heaven on this
earth
I can say that I know better, I've been there.

After you when someone smiles at me I'll wonder what to
trust
After you I'll be suspicious of anything that's nice
I don't know that I'll get over you and if I ever do
I'll never doubt this much again, not after you...

AIN'T IT FUNNY WHAT A FOOL WILL DO 

(Funny what a fool will do)
Here am I without your love again
Oh how many times have you walked out and walked back in
And I cry just like a baby after you
Oh oh it's funny what a fool will do
Here am I with empty arms again
Counting all the times that you walked out and walked back in
Still my heart goes right on wanting you
Oh oh it's funny what a fool will do
Oh oh it's funny what a fool will do

AIN'T LOVE A LOT LIKE THAT 

Well, a twister tore the roof off a grocery store
Blew an Idaho potato through the hardwood floor
Twirled granny's apron up around her head
The cat's still missin' and the dog is dead.

Well, ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
UnconditionL, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

--- Instrumental ---

Just like Moses and the Red Sea water
A little bit of faith and the ring I bought her
I hit my knees and she took my hand
And she lead my heart to the promised land.

Ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
UnconditionL, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

--- Instrumental ---

Well, the honeymoon's over and the work begun
My baby say I'm gettin' on her nerves again
One false move and an angry shout
I'm sleepin' all olone on the fold out couch.

Ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
UnconditionL, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

--- Instrumental ---

Ain't love a lot that
Now ain't love a lot like that
UnconditionL, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

UnconditionL, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

--- Instrumental ---
Ain't love a lot like that?...

AIN'T LOVE BEEN GOOD 

Ain't love been good to us, ain't it been good
It's given us happiness and we're knockin' on wood
We're livin' in sunshine like we knew that we could
Ain't love been wonderful, oh, ain't it been good.

We walk through life side by side
We found the door to happiness open wide
And folks who gather now right where we stand
And love's been heaven here on earth in every ways.

The world is troubled in many ways
It seems the problem always are here to stay
But we'll keep holdin' on till the very end
And we'll get by no matter what shape the world is in.

Ain't love been good to us, ain't it been good
It's given us happiness and we're knockin' on wood
We're livin' in sunshine like we knew that we could
Ain't love been wonderful, oh, ain't it been good...

AIN'T NOBODY GONNA MISS ME 

Well, I remember back in my younger days of high school
Back then baseball was my biggest dream
So when I stood in line for my turn at bat
I found that wasn't where they wanted me at
I wound up totten the water for all the teams.

Well, there ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm leavin'
There ain't nobody ever loved me very long
No matter how much I miss our show
I get kicked around everywhere I go
There aint nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone.

So when my Uncle Sam called me to serve my country
I stood up brave and smiled and packed my duds
But to my surprise when I got there
They gave me the boots and cut my hair
I wound up scrubbin' the floor and a peelin' spuds.

No, ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm leavin'
There ain't nobody ever loved me very long
No matter how much I miss our show
I get kicked everywhere I go
There aint nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone.

Well, I met me a pretty little girl one day in
Nashville
I loved her more than all of my wildest dreams
She took me for my money, my house and my boat
And didn't even leave me a goodbye note
I gave it all up, boy, did she strip me clean.

Well, there ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm leavin'
There ain't nobody ever loved me very long
No matter how much I miss our show
I get kicked around everywhere where I go
There aint nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone, when I'm
gone.

There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone.

Sittin' in the middle and I musta gone...
