CAPO: 2
INTRO: D C G C G C G
G
I HEARD HIS TIME WAS SHORT SO I
C G
WENT TO SEE MY OLD FRIEND
WHEN I WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR HE SAID
C G
SURE GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN
C
SIT DOWN HERE BY ME,
G
DOC SAYS MY FUTURE AIN'T BRIGHT
BUT EVEN IF I DON'T BEAT IT THERE'S A
C D G
PART OF MY PAST THAT WON'T DIE
C
HE POINTS TO A PICTURE AND SMILES
G
FROM HIS EASY CHAIR
C
AS HE RELIVES THE MOMENTS, SAYS GIRL
G
THAT WAS HEAVEN RIGHT THERE
C
YOU CAN SEE HIS HEART'S BROKEN
G
AS A LONESOME TEAR DROPS TO THE FLOOR
C
AND ALONG WITH THE SILENCE THAT FELL
D G
CAME A KNOCK AT THE DOOR
CHORUS:
Em C D
A BOUQUET WRAPPED UP IN RIBBONS AND BOWS
Em C D
TOO LITTLE TOO LATE I SUPPOSE
C STOP (1ST-TIME ONLY)
BUT HE CLINGS TO THE LAST RAY OF HOPE
G C
AND A DOZEN WHITE ROSES
G
THEY WERE MEANT FOR EACHOTHER
C G
THAT WAS CLEAR RIGHT FROM THE START
C
WHAT A SHAME TOO MUCH PRIDE AND A JEALOUS HEART
G
KEPT THEM APART
C
A CARD AND SOME FLOWERS
G
AIN'T QUITE ENOUGH TO MAKE AMENDS
C
FOR FIFTY YEARS LIVING A LIFE
D G
OF WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN
REPEAT CHORUS G C G C G
