Lyrics

You don’t re (Am)mem ber me,

but I re (G7)mem ber you.

’Twas not so (Am)long a go

you broke my (G7)heart in two.

Tears on my (G7)pil low,

(F)pain in my (G7)heart caused by (C)you.

If we could (Am)start a new,

I would n’t (G7)hes i tate.

I’d glad ly (Am)take you back

and tempt the (G7)hand of fate.

Tears on my (G7)pil low,

(F)pain in my (G7)heart caused by (C)you.

Hoo hoo (F)hoo (G7)hoo (C)hoo.

(F)Love is (G7)not a (C)gad get,

(F)love is (G7)not a (C)toy.

(F#7)When you find the (G7)one you love she’ll (F#7)fill your heart with (G7)joy.

Be fore you (Am)go a way,

my dar ling, (G7)think of me.

There may be (Am)still a chance

to end my (G7)mis er y.

Tears on my (G7)pil low,

(F)pain in my (G7)heart caused by (C)you.

You don’t re (Am)mem ber me,

but I re (G7)mem ber you.

’Twas not so (Am)long a go

you broke my (G7)heart in two.

Tears on my (G7)pil low,
