The Prom

INTRO: Ab Db

Db                              
On my way to the senior prom, I saw 
Bbm
a crowd

all gathered round.
  Gb                              
I stopped the car, got out to see 
Ab
just what

it could be.
Db                         Bbm
There lying near the crowd was a 
girl dressed

in a gown.
  Gb                       Ab
I walked up so I could see just who 
it could be.

Db                      Bbm
Knelt down by her side..tears came 
into my eyes.

Gb                            Ab
Did there lie the one I love..the 
one I'd always love.
Db                             
Then she said, take this ring of 
        Bbm
mine, you are my

love divine.
Gb                     Ab        
And as our lips met, I know, I 
                Db
can't forget..the way
                    Bbm
my heart cried..the way it hurt 
inside.
Gb                      Ab       
She's gone so far away..my lonely
            Db
 heart must pay.
      Bbm         Db          Bbm
(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.)

BRIDGE:(Spoken:)
Db                         Bbm
There lies the one I love..the one 
I'll always love.
Gb                                
If I had picked her up on time, 
  Ab
her precious love

would still be mine.
Db                                
The love, the love she gave to me 
Bbm
will always stay with me.
Gb                                
Til the day we meet, til the day 
     Ab
you return to me.

Db                           Bbm
Then my heart begins to cry, it 
hurts so deep inside.
Gb                      Ab       
She's gone so far away..my lonely
            Db
 heart must pay.
