Capo 2nd Fret (to match recording)

Intro: (D) (D/F#) (G)

(D) I heard somebody (D/F#) speak her name
They (G) said she was still looking fine
(D) And I could feel that same old (D/F#) flame
I (G) once felt when she was mine (A)
(F#m7) Always thought that I was (G2) missing something
(F#m7) But I found out much (G2) too late
(D) There'll (G2) never be an(D/F#)other who'll (G) love me that wa(A)y (A7)

  (G) I'd like to have that (A7) one (D) back (A/D) (D)
  (G) I've never known someone (D) so true (A/D) (D) 
  (G) And a love that (D/F#) pure and swee(E7sus)t is one a (E7) man should never lo(A7)se (Em7)
  (A7) But if my lips had said (D/F#) I'm (G) sorry
  She might have stopped right in her (D) tracks (Em7)
  (D/F#) But now I (G) find my poor heart (D) say(D/F#)ing
  (G) I'd like to (A7) have that one (D) back 

(D) (D/F#) (G)

I can almost see her standing there, tears rolling down her face
As she packed away her memories in that old worn-out suitcase
If I'd only known then what I know now
I'd never opened that door
Oh, they just don't make hearts like hers anymore

(REPEAT CHORUS)

  (D/F#) I wouldn't (G) hear my poor heart (D) say(D/F#)ing
  (G) I'd like to (A7) have that one (D) back (D/F#) (G) (Asus) (D)
