Verse 1
D 
Now you're back on my
G 
doorstep a' crying
D 
A 
Like I cried through all those lonely years
D 
But I can't dry your tears it's been
G 
D 
too long since love was here
And I've already gave
A 
D 
you my better years

Verse 2
D 
And so the pages of time
G 
kept right on turning
D 
They never stopped for us
A 
to harvest the years
D 
And old embers of love
G 
kept right on dying
D 
A 
D 
G 
D 
A 
D 
For there was no one to
G 
D 
A 
drown my tears.

Verse 3
D 
But I've tried not to blame you
G 
and I try not to shame you
D 
A 
All I can do now is wish you well
D 
But if you should need a friend
G 
D 
I'll be there until the end
A 
Just don't ask me to love you again.
D 

Verse 4
And don't come back to my
G 
doorstep a' crying
D 
A 
Hoping for what's been dead so long
D 
For the embers have all
G 
turned to ashes
D 
There's nothing here but old
A 
D 
memories and this song.
