A             E                 A
I saw a man today who said he talked to you
                  D                A
Not so long ago I think a month or two
      A                  D
As my mind raced back in time I prayed
   A                 D
Oh lord don't let it show
   A                   E             A
He thinks I forgot you Fifteen years ago

[Chorus]
        A             D                A
Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
        A                       E
Why did he have to mention your name
       A            D               A              D
I'm as broken up in side as if it's been a week or so
           A             D              A            D
It takes a mighty strong love to keep a man thinking of
          A                 E             A
A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago

[Verse 2]
           C               F                   C
I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
  C                            G
I promised her my love through all eternity
     C                      F            C               G
I've tried hard to make her happy and so far she doesn't know
        C                     G             G
I can't shake this thing from fifteen years ago

[Chorus]
        C             F                C
Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
        C                       G
Why did he have to mention your name
       C            F               C              F
I'm as broken up in side as if it's been a week or so
           C           F             C                  F
It takes a mighty long time to get a real love off your mind, I know
     C           G             C
I've tried since fifteen years ago

[Outro]
           C           F             C                  F
It takes a mighty long time to get a real love off your mind, I know
     C           G             C
I've tried since fifteen years ago
