Hell Stays Open All Night
Recorded by George Jones
written by Bobby L. Harden 

C                                  F
She said hello and I said Hon it's me
           C                                     G7
She said I might have known  and I said oh listen please  
        C                      F
Leaving you for her was wrong  please let me come back home
         C                      G7                 C
This old town's closed down and I have no place to go

                                       F
And she said hell stays open all night long  
C                      G7
Hell never closes it's open from dawn till dawn  
       C                                        F
When I slammed the door to heaven I should have known
C          G7             C
Hell stays open all night long

                                    F
She said good-bye  don't call me anymore
    C                                G7
For the one that I love now is at my door
    C
Someone has took your place 
        F                             C
This is something you'll just have to face  
                             G7                   C
As far as I'm concerned when you have no place to go 

                                   F
Remember hell stays open all night long  
C                      G7
Hell never closes it's open from dawn till dawn  
       C                                        F
When I slammed the door to heaven I should have known
C          G7             C
Hell stays open all night long
