C             Dm                 
Though I smiled the tears inside 
     G         F
were a burning
C             Dm                  
I wish him luck, and then he said 
G             F
goodbye
C             Dm                
He was gone, but still his words
G               F
 kept returning
C               Dm               
What else was there for me to do 
       C   Am
but cry

          C             Am
Would you believe that yesterday
          C             Am
This girl was in my arms and sworn 
to me
          C             Am
She'd be mine eternally
