INTRO:  G Em   G Em   G Em    

            G     Em           G   Em
A very old friend    came by today 
               G           Em
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
G                Em                G
Of the love that he just found 
                C    D                  G  Em    G Em
And Marie's the name   of his latest flame


                 G   Em                  G    Em
He talked and talked    and I heard him say
         G               Em
That she had the longest blackest hair
     G                   Em            G
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
                 C   D                 G  Em    G Em
And Marie's the name   of his latest flame


BRIDGE:
D                                        C
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burnin' 
  D                                    C
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
D                                      C
He was gone but still his words kept returnin'
D                       C            G    Em   G  Em
What else was there for me to do but cry


          G       Em            G     Em
Would you believe    that yesterday
               G              Em
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
G                  Em        G
She'd be mine eternally
                 C   D                 G     Em  G   Em
And Marie's the name    of his latest flame


REPEAT BRIDGE and last VERSE
