Recorded by Loretta Lynn
(Capo on 3)
Intro.: |(D) |(Em)(A)|(D) |(D)
Oh, I (D)hear familiar (A)sounds down the (D)sidewalk
Gettin' closer with (A)every step he (D)takes
Lord, I'm so afraid that if (A)I look out the (D)window
(G) I'll be (D)tempted to re-(A)peat an old mis-(D)take
(Chorus)
Don't open that (D)door (D7) to an old memo-(G)ry
When he said good-(D)bye, I locked it up (Bm7)tight and threw out the (Em)key (A)
I've stood here be(D)fore, (D7) Lord I can't stand no (G)more (Gm)
Won't go there a-(D)gain, heart don't let him (Em)in, don't (A)open that (D)door
Inst.: |(D) |(Em)(A)|(D) |(D)
The (D)stronger me has (A)found the will to (D)fight it
But now he's gone and the (A)weaker side's in (D)tears
Lord, it took so long to (A)put the hurt be-(D)hind me (G)
If I don't (D)look back the (A)past can't find me (D)here
(Chorus)
Don't open that (D)door (D7) to an old memo-(G)ry
When he said good-(D)bye, I locked it up (Bm7)tight and threw out the (Em)key (A)
I've stood here be(D)fore, (D7) Lord I can't stand no (G)more (Gm)
Won't go there a-(D)gain, heart don't let him (Em)in, don't (A)open that (D)door (Em)(F#m)|(G)
(Tag)
Won't go there a-(D)gain, heart don't let him (Em)in
Don't you (A)open that (G)door (D)(A)|(D) -----
