[Lyric] The Old Country Waltz (Jeff Tweedy)

They were playing that old country waltz
In this empty bar echoin' off the wall
When I first got the bad news that you set me free
The band played that old country waltz for me

Well, I loved, and I lost, and I cried
The day that the two of us died
I ain't got no excuses, I just want to ride
While the band plays that old country waltz

Out the window, the moon shines on the roofs of the cars
While we knock down tequila and salt, oh
And they're playing that old country waltz

We're playing that old country waltz
In this empty bar echoin' off the wall
Ain't got no excuses, we just want to play
That little old country waltz

I ain't got no excuses, I just want to play
That little old country waltz
That little old country waltz
