G                       C  
Well the last time I saw you  
             G               Em  
You were standing in the doorway  
G                      C  
You had a suitcase in your hand  
               G                D  
And I knew you were leaving,  
G                     C  
But I didn't know for where.  
           G                Em  
You said you were going to find  
G                    C  
A better life somewhere  
              G                 D  
And I guess you thought it would be fair.  

G                       C  
Oh, you were young and beautiful  
               G                Em  
And I was feeling like a fool  
G                      C  
I didn't know how to tell you  
                 G                D  
That I wanted you to stay.  
G                       C  
So I stood there in silence  
               G                    Em  
While you turned and walked away,  
G                      C  
And I felt a part of me  
               G                D  
Break on that day.  

G                       C  
So I wrote you a letter  
               G                  Em  
And I hoped it would make things clear  
G                       C  
But you never answered me  
               G                   D  
And I waited for you here.  
G                     C  
Now the years have gone by  
               G                   Em  
And I still think of you each day,  
G                       C  
But I know that you have moved on,  
               G                D  
And I'm just a memory in your way.
