By Hank Williams (Orginally released August 1950 as M-G-M #10760) From Hank Williams: The Singles Collection Transcribed by: Ron McGough D G D What's the use to deny we've been living a lie A That we should have admitted before D G D We were just victims of a half-hearted love A D So why should we try anymore G D The vows that we make are only to break A We drift like a wave from the shore D G D The kisses we steal we know are not real A D So why should we try anymore G D The dreams that we knew can never come true A They're gone to return no more D G D False love like ours fades with the flowers A D So why should we try anymore G D Our story's so old again has been told A On the past let's close the door D G D And smile don't regret but live and forget A D There's no use to try anymore Ron McGough
