G
C
Em

Did you
G
C
hear,
D
G
I was in town?
Em
Bm
C
Or by coincidence, just happened around?
G
C
D
Bm
Anyway, it's sure good to see
D
G
C
Em
D
you again.
G
C
D
How's your new love, how's your life
G
Em
Bm
C
I hope it all for you has turned out right
G
C
D
I can't help but think of
Bm
D
you now and then
G
C
Em
D
G
I've changed my dress
C
D
and you've changed your
G
Em
And that's not the same perfume
Bm
you used to wear
C
G
You got a new job
C
D
And the songs I write are starting
G
C
Em
D
to play
G
C
Our love was right
D
Our timing was wrong
G
Em
But painfully it's helped us
Bm
C
If the truth be known
G
And it's taken time
C
D
But I think that I can
G
C
D
honestly say
G
That we really did the best we could do
C
D
And I don't regret a single
Bm
minute with you
C
So we must go on
C#dim
G
with our memories content
C
G
Am
Intended was the time we spent
D
G
C
And if it keeps us from a similar fate
D
Then we can't really say
we've made a mistake
Bm
C
You'll always love me
C#dim
G
and I'll always love you
Am
D
But girl, we did the best we could
G
C
Em
D
G
C
Em
D
do
G
C
Yeah, I've been busy, no,
D
G
I won't be here long
Em
I just came out to cut a
Bm
C
few new songs
G
C
D
Traveling's still rough, but all in all,
G
C
Em
D
I'm doing fine
G
You've got to run,
C
D
so I guess it's goodbye
G
Em
What's wrong,
Bm
C
G
have you got something in your eye?
C
Ain't it funny?
D
I think that I've got something in mind
G
C
D
G
You know we really did
the best we could do
C
D
And I don't regret a single
Bm
minute with you
C
So we must go on
C#dim
G
with our memories content
C
G
Am
Intended was the time we spent
D

And if it keeps us from a similar fate

and I'll always love you

we could do

You'll always love me

and I'll always love you
Am
D
But girl, we did the best we could
