He said I'll love you 'til I [F] die. She told him you'll forget in [Bb] time. As the years went slowly [C] by, she still preyed upon his [F] mind.
He kept her picture on his [F] wall. Went half crazy now and [Bb] then. He still loved her through it [C] all - Hoping she'd come back [F] again
( KEY CHANGE )
Kept some letters by his [G] bed, dated nineteen-sixty- [C] -two. He had underlined in [D] red, every single I love [G] you.
I went to see him just [G] today. Oh, but I didn't see no [C] tears. All dressed up to go [D] away. First time I'd seen him smile in [G] years
[CHORUS] - - - - - He stopped loving her [G] today. They placed a wreath upon his [C] door. And soon they'll carry him [D] away. He stopped loving her [G] today
[Verse - partially spoken] - - - - - You know, she came to see him one last [G] time. Aw, and we all wondered if she [C] would. And it kept running through my [D] mind: This time he's over her for [G] good
[CHORUS] - - - - -
