He said I'll love you 'til I (F) die
She told him you'll forget (Bb) in time
As the years went (C) slowly by 
She still preyed upon his (F) mind
He kept her picture on his (F) wall
Went half crazy (Bb) now and then 
He still loved her through it (C) all
Hoping she'd come back a(F)gain (F#)

(No Chord) Kept some letters by his (F#) bed
Dated 196(B)2
He had underlined in (C#) red
Every single I love (F#) you
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no (B) tears
All dressed up to go a(C#)way
First time I'd seen him smile in (F#) years

 He stopped loving her to(F#)day
 They placed a (F#7) wreath upon his (B) door
 And soon they'll carry him a(C#)way
 He stopped loving her (F#) today

(F#) You know she came to see him one last time
(B) Oh and we all wondered if she would
(C#) And it kept running through my mind
(F#) This time he's over her for good

(Repeat Chorus)
