Thought I'd contribute the chords to "For The Good Times" as performed by
Ray Price. The arrangement is a little jazzier than the Kris Kristofferson
version on the site.

Verse 1:
(Eb)
Don't look so (F-7) sad, (Bb7) I know it's (Eb) over. (Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6)
But life goes (F-7) on, and this (Bb7) old world will keep on (Eb) turning. (Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6)
Let just be (Ab) glad we had some (Bb7) time to spend (Eb) together.
There's no (Ab) need to watch the (F-7) bridges that we're (Bb7) burning.
Chorus:
Lay your (Eb) head upon my (Bb7) pillow.
Hold your warm and tender body close to (Eb) mine.
Hear the whisper of the (Eb7) raindrops blowin (Ab) soft against the (Ab-) window
(Bb7) And make believe you (F-7) love me one more (Bb7) time, (Bb7b9) for the (Eb) good times.
Verse 2:
I'll get (F-7) along, (Bb7) you'll find (Eb) another (Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6)
And I'll be (F-7) here if you should (Bb7) find you ever (Eb) need me. (Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6)
Don't say a (Ab) word about (Bb7) tommorrow or (Eb) forever
There'll be (Ab) time enough for (F-7) sadness when you (Bb7) leave me.
Repeat Chorus.
