| G | |
| He said I'll love you til I d | ie |
| C | |
| She told him you'll forget in | time |
| D | |
| As the years went slowly | by |
| G | |
| She still preyed upon his m | ind |
| G | |
| He kept her picture on his w | all |
| C | |
| Went half crazy now and t | hen |
| D | |
| He still loved her through it a | ll |
| G | |
| Hoping she'd come back ag | ain |
| G | |
| Kept some letters by his b | ed |
| C | and | in | 1962 | D | |
| He had underlined in r | ed |
| G | |
| Every single I love y | ou |
| G | |
| I went to see him just tod | ay |
| C | |
| Oh but I didn't see no te | ars |
| D | |
| All dressed up to go a | way |
| G | |
| First time I'd seen him smile in ye | ars |
| Chorus: |
| G | |
| He stopped loving her today |
| G7 | D | |
| They placed a wr | eath upon his d | oor |
| D7 | |
| And soon they'll carry him a | way |
| G | |
| He stopped loving her tod | ay |
| G | |
| You know she came to see him one last t | ime |
| C | |
| Oh and we all wondered if she wo | uld |
| D | |
| And it kept running through my m | ind |
| G | |
| This time he's over her for g | ood |
| Chorus:... |
I feel like it ought to be a C and not a D chord at the end of the phrase, "placed a wreath up on his door" - the D just doesn't sound right. I love the song, though, and the rest of it is wonderful ... thanks for this!
