Verse 1

G
Many times I've thought about you
     C                   G
Many times I've wondered why
That you'd ever go and leave me
         D7                  G
And this heart you taught to cry

Verse 2

Darling wait until I see you
          C             G
Since you say it is the end
Though I know that you don't love me
          D7             G
Won't you let me be your friend

Verse 3

As I lay upon my pillow
         C            G
Thinking of you in my dreams
Are you happy with another
       D7               G
I'm so lonesome here it seems

Verse 2

Darling wait until I see you
          C             G
Since you say it is the end
Though I know that you don't love me
          D7             G
Won't you let me be your friend

Verse 4

Do you ever think about me
         C              G
Will you love again someday
Will you ever think my darling
        D7              G
Of this heart you stole away

Verse 2

Darling wait until I see you
          C             G
Since you say it is the end
Though I know that you don't love me
          D7             G
Won't you let me be your friend

Verse 2

Darling wait until I see you
          C             G
Since you say it is the end
Though I know that you don't love me
          D7             G
Won't you let me be your friend
