Forgotten But Not Gone

    D                                G         A             D
Her birthday came and went without a card or a single I Love You,
                                   G                       A
On their anniversary she sat all a lone at a table set for two,
    G                                                                 D
She tries her best to please him, but she never hears one single word of praise,
    A                                                                    D
She feels just like a stranger in a home where love has seen it's better days,

           A
Well, he's takin' her for granted
    G                                D
God only knows why she keeps hangin' on,
            A                              G
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not for gotten,
A                             D    D A D A
Than to be forgotten, but not gone

     D                               G            A                D
Some how he can't remember when he's late to even take the time to call,
                                       G                                   A
And even on the nights he's there, she gets the feelin', he's not there at all,
G                                                                    D
She's become a prisoner in that big old house, where sweet love used to be,
     A                                                         D
Well it's not even over, but Lord, she feels just like a memor y,

           A
Well, he's takin' her for granted
    G                                D
God only knows why she keeps hangin' on,
            A                              G
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not for gotten,
A                             D
Than to be forgotten, but not gone

            A                              G
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not for gotten,
             A                                        D    A D A D
Gone but not forgotten, than to be forgotten, but not gone
