My Sweet Love Ain't Around

Written and recorded by Hank Wiliams Sr.

[C] Listen to ---the rain a-fallin'

Can't you hear ---that lonesome sound [C7]

Oh, my [F] poor ---old heart is [C] breakin'

'Cause my sweet ---love [G7] ain't a-[C] round.

Lord, I think ---I'll start to ramble

Got to leave ---this weary town

This old place ---is way too lonely

'Cause my sweet ---love ain't around.

On that train ---tonight I'm leavin'

And don't ask me ---where I'm bound

I can't stay ---here any longer

'Cause my sweet ---love ain't around.

(Two additional verses not on record)

Mem-o-ries ---come back to haunt me

My dream house ---has done fell down

This old world ---is dark around me

'Cause my sweet ---love ain't around.

Something tells ---me that I'm losing

'Cause these weary ---blues I've found

Oh, my bab- ---y left this morning

Lord, my sweet ---love ain't around.
