C                     F
My story begins where most stories end  
                       C
After the boy gets the girl
                                  F
It didn't work out for me and I'm blue as I can be
        G7                   C
It's the mighty lonesome old world

 
Who was a fool that said 
        F                 G7                     C
There's blues skies ahead after the boy gets the girl
                           F
The only fool I see is the fool from broken dreams
         G7                  C
It's the mighty lonesome old world
 
             G7                           C
I think I'll start back again to where my story began
D7                             G7
Back when your love for me was true
C
But time moves along 
         F
Carrying not who's right or wrong 

G7                     C
After the boy gets the girl
 
My love once sweet and true 
      F
Is an old love proven true
       G7                  C
It's a mighty lonesome old world
