Verse 1
(G major) He got the new car, she (A minor) got the kids
(B minor) They sold the house (E minor) and
lived apart (D major) (Dsus4)
(G major) And I kept the memories
of (A minor) how it had been,
(Csus2) kept (B minor) every pic (E minor) ture
in my heart. (D major)
When (Dsus4) he (D major) was here, (Csus2)
she would smile,
they would laugh (G major) for a while,
she would ask, (A minor) am I still (G major) your only one?
(B minor) They (G major) would dance (Csus2) cheek to cheek
by the light (G major) (B minor) of our TV (E minor)
An (D minor) d she (Csus2) never
(A minor) needed memories
when (G major) (D major) he was here (G major)
He found his freedom, she (A minor) found a job
An (B minor) d gave away (E minor) the wedding
gown (D major) (C major) (Dsus4) (C major)
(G major) Spent every weekend,
(A minor) calling her old friends
Ask (B minor) ing discreetly, (E minor)
what's he do (D major) ing (C major) now?
(Csus2) When (C major) (Dsus4) he was (Csus2) here,
she would smile
They would laugh (G major) for a while
She (B minor) would (A minor) ask,
Am I still (G major) your (Csus2) only (G major) one?
Then (B minor) they would
(Csus2) dance cheek to cheek
by the light (B minor) of a TV (E minor)
An (D major) d she (Csus2) never needed (A minor) memories
when (G major) (Dsus4) he was (Csus2) here (G major)
The let (Csus2) ters and the photographs
are locked (G major) away
For rainy (A minor) days when (C major) (G major) we are brave
(B minor) I ask (Csus2) her,
she taste forever in (E minor) his kiss?
Does it have (A minor) to end like this,
(Csus2) both of (G major) us (C major) just wishing
he (Dsus4) was (Csus2) here?
She would smile,
they would laugh (B minor) for a (G major) while
Then (B minor) she would ask, (A minor)
am I (C major) still (G major) your only one? (B minor)
And they would (Csus2) dance cheek to cheek
By the light (B minor) of the TV
An (E minor) (D major) d we (Csus2) never
(C major) needed (A minor) memories
when (G major) he was here
