You Never Know Just How Good You've Got It     
by George Jones
 
C
Hey once I was the honky-tonking talk of the town
       F              C
Riding high in my bad Chevrolet
                                      A7
I had seven pretty women Lord hanging on me
   D7                     G7
A different one for every day
    
    C
But look at me now all my women's left town
      F                            C
And a buck is getting hard to come by
            F          C            A7
Well I must confess my life's a big mess
       D7           G7           C
I'm so low  I could lay down and die
 
 
Well you never know just how good you've got it 
           F               C
'till you  ain't got it no more
                                            A7
You never know just how high you're flying 'till you
D7                    G7
Fall face down on the floor
 
C
All I can do is just moan the blues 
    F                      E7
And dream about what I had before
        F
Hey you never know just how 
C                   A7
Good you've got it 'till you
D7    G7         C
Ain't got it no more
 
 
For the first time in my rambling life
     F                       C
True love finally fell in my hands
                                 A7
But it's impossible to love just one
     D7                   G7  
With another on the other team
 
    C
Hey I begged her to stay but she left anyway
  F                              C 
I lost her and she's too hard to find
      F                    C                A7           
What else can I do son you win some and you lose
      D7             G7            C 
But I think I lost a good one this time
 
Repeat #2
