Biography:
John Conlee has achieved a level of success that he has sustained by simply being himself and by making records that the listening public can relate to. He is a gifted entertainer, but he’s not into the glitz and hype of the entertainment world. He’d rather spend his “off the road” time working on his 32 acre farm outside of Nashville, or engaging in his woodworking and gun-smithing hobbies.
Overall, there have been 29 single releases throughout the years with 26 of them charting in the top 20 or better.

[Verse 1]
D
I wake up in the morning is a state of fright
On the wrong side of the bed all night
G D
Clinging to the broken heart Inside my head
G A
I open my eyes and I move my hand
G A
From 'round her pillow to the nightstand
G A D
And straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed
[Verse 2]
D
Go to the office; the work's piled up
D
Pour three fingers bourbon in my coffee cup
G D
Cry on my best friend's shoulder down the hall
G A
Feel so lonely, when I close the door
G A
Bite my nails and I walk the floor
G A D
And straighten Miss Emily's picture on my wall
[Chorus]
D G D
Look out my window and what do I see
D A D
Nothing but pain looking back at me
G D
All that my future means to me
Em G
Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind
A D
And straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then
[Verse 3]
D
I leave my office and I go downtown
To a little bar we all hang around
G D
Laugh drink beer -shoot pool and have a ball
G A
When the laughter stops and the hurt takes hold
G A
Reach in my pocket for my billfold
G A D
And show Miss Emily's picture to em' all
[Verse 4]
D
I stagger in the house and I slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
G D
Wishing I could do the same thing in my head
G A
Drink a beer and I eat a bite
G A
And just before I turn out the light
G A D
I straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed
[Chorus]
D G D
Look out my window and what do I see
D A D
Nothing but pain looking back at me
G D
All that my future means to me
Em
Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind
A D
And straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then
D
I wake up in the morning is a state of fright
On the wrong side of the bed all night

Clinging to the broken heart Inside my head
