Verse 1

G                              C
Take back the vows you have spoken
D                      G
Toss them aside and be free
                                C
Then smile on this sad lonely token
D                        G
Leave all the sorrow for me

Chorus

D                            G
Take back the heart you once gave
A                      D
And those promises you made
G                       C
You know it's true that you'll be lonely too
D                          G
My love for you will never fade

Verse 2

As down on life's road you wander
Selfish and gay and carefree
Won't you ever stop to ponder
All the heartaches you've caused me

Verse 3

When at last you're in sorrow
Time leaves these scars plain to see
Calm as a moment tomorrow
Lifted the sunshine from me
