[VERSE 1]

         C            G        C
Got to know that our love was dying
Bb                       F
   Weighed heavy on my brain
     C              G
My thoughts and my care
        C               F
were stripped and laid bare
   C          G       F
I beheld her beauty again

[VERSE 2]

          C       G        C
And it's not for lack of trying
Bb                                 F
   Her love left my heart like a shell
      C              G
She cried both our tears
              C         F
And when the morning appeared,
        C           G            F
we had guarded our virtue quite well

[CHORUS]

         C         G       C
But I'm going to stand by you
Am                      G
Even when the sun goes down
      F        C
The ground is waiting
    G          F
We let go our memory
Bb              G
  And I stand alone

[VERSE 3]

        C      G     C
I'm a plain unlucky soldier
Bb                 F
   No better than you
  C              G
I go where I'm swept
        C         F
and no record is kept
      C        G            F
since I let go my love so true

[CHORUS]

         C         G       C
But I'm going to stand by you
Am                      G
Even when the sun goes down
      F        C
The ground is waiting
    G          F
We let go our memory
Bb              G
  And I stand alone

[VERSE 4]

    C            G
Contentment is yours
    C           F
So hear my sad song
       C             G
Then drink down the bottle
     C           F
And we'll move along
