[Bbm] She [Fm] changed her face
Then I heard my [Bbm] baby
[Fm]
She
[Bbm] [Fm]
[Db] used to be my [C] love
[Fm]
Well, I fell
Tried [Bbm] so hard [Fm] to keep from crying
Then my heart [Bbm] felt desperate
I'm [Fm] very glad
She was my [Bbm] love
[Fm] Oh, I had to live for her
No [Db] doubt, I'm just a [C] fool
[Fm] No doubt at all
I'm just a [Bbm] fool

I'm just a fool
And she's gone, she's [Bbm] gone
And may [Fm] God bless her
Wherever [Bbm] my heart [Fm] may take my water
She'll search [Bbm] the twilight [Fm]
of the world
Know [Db] that she's left a [C] man
Who [Fm] wears a tie that I made
She's gone, oh Lord, [Bbm] she's gone
