Stone must be the wall built around your heart

I once had a darling Sweetheart and I loved her so.
C                    Am      D7                 G
I love her more than I never make my poor heart show.
    C                Am          F                   C
And she ran away and left me she would find somebody else.
C               Am                F       G    C   G
Left me here in this old world to cry all to myself.

I know somewhere in this old world there is a girl for me
C                  Am              D7            C
She don't long for wealth and fame just love and sympathy.
C                       Am   F               C
I don't know where she lives maybe across the sea.
                 Am            F        G         C
But the walls of Jericho can't keep her away from me.
