She told him, “You’ll for get in (Cm)time.”

but As the years went slow ly (F7)by,

He kept her pic ture on his wall,

She went half cra zy now and (Cm)then,

but he still loved her through it (F7)all,

hop ing she’d come back a (Bb)gain.

He kept some let ters by his He stopped lov ing her to day,

they placed a wreath up on his (Eb)door,

and soon they’ll car ry him a (F7)way.

He stopped lov ing her to (Bb)day.

He stopped lov ing her to (Eb)day.
