Hank Williams You Blotted My Happy Schooldays
(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.
