He said I'll love you til I die
                              A
She told him you'll forget in time
                         B
As the years went slowly by
                           E
She still preyed upon his mind
                            E
He kept her picture on his wall
                         A
Went half crazy now and then
                               B
He still loved her through it all
                         E
Hoping she'd come back again
                          E
Kept some letters by his bed
        A
Dated 1962
                      B
He had underlined in red
                     E
Every single I love you
                          E
I went to see him just today
                         A
Oh but I didn't see no tears
                      B
All dressed up to go away
                                   E
First time I'd seen him smile in years
                        E
He stopped loving her today
                               A
They placed a wreath upon his door
                            B
And soon they'll carry him away
                        E
He stopped loving her today
                                       E
You know she came to see him one last time
                                A
Oh and we all wondered if she would
                                B
And it kept running through my mind
                             E
This time he's over her for good
                        E
He stopped loving her today
                               A
They placed a wreath upon his door
                            B
And soon they'll carry him away
                        E
He stopped loving her today
