Biography:
Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music. His biggest career hit song, "Walking the Floor Over You" (1941), marked the rise of the honky tonk style of music. In 1948, he was the first singer to record a hit version of "Blue Christmas", a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his mid-1950s version. Another well-known Tubb hit was "Waltz Across Texas" (1965)

Two Glasses, Joe
Cindy Walker
(as recorded by Ernest Tubb)
G
Set up two glasses, Joe
A
And turn the jukebox low
D G
And let me sit and reminisce
G
While I pretend that she
A
Is sitting here with me
D G
The way she did not long ago
C
We used to paint the town red
G
And dance until two
A
Well, I don't paint it red no more
D
But I'm painting it blue
G
He stole her love I know
A
But he can't stop me, Joe
D G
>From having just a dream or two
Instrumental break
G
Set up two glasses, Joe
A
Maybe you didn't know
D G
But there's a memory in the room
G
A memory that walks
A
A memory that talks
D G
And haunts me everywhere I go
C
I'm just a fool who loves here
G
And will till I die
A
>From the very first hello
D
To the last hello
G
Well this is it you know
A
So fill the glasses Joe
D G
And leave me here alone to cry
