DA7D I saw a man today who said he talked to you
GD Not so long ago I think a month or two
G As my mind raced back in time
DG I prayed oh Lord don't let it show
DA7D He thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago
GD Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
A7 Why did he have to mention your name
DGDG I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
DGD 
G I takes a mighty strong love to keep a man thinking of
DA7D A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago
A7D I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
GD Promised her my love through all eternity
G 
DG I've tried hard to make her happy and so far she doesn't know
DA7D I can't shake this thing of fifteen years ago
GD Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
A7 Why did he have to mention your name
DGDG I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
DGD 
G It takes a mighty long time to get a real love off your mind
DA7D
