[G#m] [A]

When but a boy [A] I called [E] it Sally My life was young, not quite [C#m] sixteen
We [A] talked of things I sometimes [E] dreamed of And things [A] beyond my [E] wildest dreams
At seventeen [A] I met [E] one lona Her warm red lips set [C#m] me aglow
She [A] taught me things she should [E] not teach me [A] More than a young man ought [E] to know
At nineteen years [A] my [E] love was Sarah She was much older than [C#m] the rest of [A] all the men
She [E] said had kissed her She [A] loved the way I [E] kissed her best
[C#m] Time has flown and I [E] am older My [C#m] years are five and [E] thirty -five
Too late, [A] too late I've [E] met my lover A [A] woman very [E] much alive
Loleen, Loleen [A] Your [E] name is music
Your nearness makes my blood [C#m] run wild Alas, [A]
alas I [E] cannot claim you
[A] Compared to me [E] you're but a child So one last time I [A] [E] must be with you
And kiss the lips that thrilled [C#m] my [F#] heart [C#m] And [A] then goodbye, no [E] more to see you
[A] Forever we must [E] be apart
