G                   D7               G
Dear heart there is something I must tell you

          D7                        G
Something sad and so hard for me to say

      C                        G
For I know how much you always loved her

            D7                                G
And how you always hoped that she'd come back someday

 
              D7                G
But day after day my hopes grow dimmer
 
     D7                               G
As I watched life and love passing me by

        C                           G
And the life I live is empty and so lonely

             D7                              G
But you just lived for her and slowly let me die

 
    C                    G
You know she left me for another
 
   D7                            G D7
So give her up let her go let it b-e

     G        D7                        G  C
Dear heart if you won't stop beating for h-er
 
          G      D7               G
Then dear heart  stop beating for me


    C                    G
You know she left me for another
 
   D7                            G D7
So give her up let her go let it b-e

     G        D7                        G  C
Dear heart if you won't stop beating for h-er
 
          G      D7               G
Then dear heart  stop beating for me
