No More Sad Songs easy guitar chords by

Tim Ryan

N/A
Verse 1
Em
D

In a cafe out in Phoenix,
F#m

I was singing my way back
Em

to Tennessee
A

When a family walked in
D

and took a table not too far from me
F#m

A grandma and grandpa, a lady
Em

and three toe -headed kids
A

Nothing that unusual,
D

but I saw the lady did look kind of sad

The kids looked like the lady,
F#m
Em

except the oldest I'd say he was ten
A

He just started staring straight at me
D

the moment he walked in

I knew there's something on his mind
F#m
Em

Just because he looked at me that way
A

He stepped up to the bandstand
D

Stuck out his hand and then I heard him say
F#m

Mr. Please, don't you play
Em

no more sad songs
A

It'll make my momentary act sure
D

as Jesus watches from above
F#m

Mr. Please, don't you play
Em

no more sad, sad old songs
A

If you don't want to make my mama cry,
D
B

you won't play Faded Love
E

He said, you see, I look like my daddy,
G#m

and as long as I'm around,
F#m

well, she can 't forget.
B

And you know, I wish my

daddy would come back home,
E

but he ain't even tried to come back yet.
G#m

So my grandma and my grandpa,

well they brought mama here
F#m

just to try and chew her up.
B

So mister, if you don't play

no more sad songs,
E

I'll gladly put this dollar in your cup.

I've thought so many times
G#m

about that dollar
F#m

and his little outstretched hand
B

And how with that he'd gone away
E

he somehow knew he had to be the man

Every time I think I might
G#m

be moving on
F#m

Causing you all some tears
B

That little boy starts talking to my heart
E

In words beyond his years
G#m

Mr. Bleak, don't you play
F#m

No more sad songs
B

It'll make my mama teary -eyed
E

As sure as Jesus watches from above
G#m

Mr. Pease, don't you play
F#m

No more sad, sad old songs
B

If you don't wanna make

my mama cry,
E
G#m
F#m
B
E

you won't play fate in love

You
G#m

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
