The steel guitar played when I met him

And it played the night I lost him

Yes, you drove him to another

With your sweet steel guitar charm

I know your sorry, but it's too late now

And I know you meant no harm

But the waltz that you were playing

Put him in another's arms



So cry, steel guitar, cry on

You're crying because you know he is gone

Gone with another and I'm alone

So cry, steel guitar, cry on



So cry, steel guitar, cry on

You're crying because you know he is gone

Gone with another and I'm alone

So cry, steel guitar, cry on
