| Oh lo | vers so sadly did part. |
| C | G | |
| A boy from the band saw me standing |
| C | |
| and down on the floor made his way. |
| C | G | |
| Are you awaiting your sweetheart he asked me. |
| D | G | |
| Then to him t | hese words I did say. |

| When that someone you love doesn't lo | ve you |
| G | C | |
| and y | ou are lonely and sad. |

| Fate dealt a hand and you' | ve lost her. |
| D | G | |
| The best | pal that you ever had. |
| C | F | C | |
| Each appeal that you made was a | failure. |
| C7 | F | |
| Your romance had come to the end. |

| And that someone you love doesn't love you. |
| G | C | |
| That's when your heartaches begin. |
