Capo III
[G]
[G]Laura and Tommy were [C]lovers
He [G]wanted to give her every[C]thing
[Em]Flowers, [Am]presents, and [D]most of all, a [D7]wedding ring
[G]He saw a sign for a [C]stock car race
A [G]thousand dollar [C]prize it read
[Em]He couldn't get Laura [Am]on the phone
So [D]to her mother, [D7]Tommy said[(D/D/D/D7)]
[G]Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I [Am]need her
Tell Laura I [G]may be late
I've [Am]something to do,[D] that cannot [G]wait
He [G]drove his car to the [C]racing grounds
He [G]was the youngest [C]driver there
The [Em]crowed roared as they [Am]started the race
Around the [D]track they drove at a [D7]deadly pace[(D/D/D/D7)]
[G]No one knows what [C]happened that day
Or [G]how his car over[C]turned in flames
But [Em]as they pulled him from the [Am]twisted wreck
With his [D]dying breath, they [D7]heard him s[(D/D/D/D7)]ay
[G]Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I [Am]need her
Tell Laura [G]not to cry
My [Am]love for her [D] will never [G]die
Now [G]in the chapel where [C]Laura prays
For [G]her poor Tommy, who [C]passed away
[Em]It was just for Laura he [Am]lived and died
A[D]lone in the chapel she can [D7]hear him cry[(D/D/D/D7)]
[G]Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I [Am]need her
Tell Laura [G]not to cry
My [Am]love for her [D] will never [G]die
[G]Tell Laura I love her
[G]Tell Laura I love her .. .
