G D7
These lyin' lips, said they'd for - get,
G
Those same lovin' arms that I miss,
D7
This foolish heart, that let me part,
G
From those sweet tender lips I long to kiss.
[Chorus]
G7 C
I hear the ticking of the clock,
G
as it begged me then to stop,
A7 D7
Each picture on the wall seemed to cry,
G G7 C
And that old rusty gate, I can hear it beg me wait,
D7 G
While the curtain in the window waves good - bye.
[Verse]
G D7
In memory, I still can see,
G
Two arms that once held me tight,
D7
Oh how I miss a tender kiss,
G
From those lovin' lips that I kissed good - bye.
[Chorus]
G7 C
I hear the ticking of the clock,
G
as it begged me then to stop,
A7 D7
Each picture on the wall seemed to cry,
G G7 C
And that old rusty gate, I can hear it beg me wait,
D7 G
While the curtain in the window waves good - bye.
[Outro]
D7 G
Tag: While the curtain in the window, waves good - bye.
