On my way to the senior prom, I saw a crowd 

all gathered round.
  Gb                              Ab
I stopped the car, got out to see just what

it could be.
Db                         Bbm
There lying near the crowd was a girl dressed

in a gown.
  Gb                       Ab
I walked up so I could see just who it could be.

Db                      Bbm
Knelt down by her side..tears came into my eyes.
Gb                            Ab
Did there lie the one I love..the one I'd always love.
Db                                     Bbm
Then she said, take this ring of mine, you are my

love divine.
Gb                     Ab                        Db
And as our lips met, I know, I can't forget..the way
                    Bbm
my heart cried..the way it hurt inside.
Gb                      Ab                   Db
She's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay.
      Bbm         Db          Bbm   
(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.)

BRIDGE:(Spoken:)
Db                         Bbm
There lies the one I love..the one I'll always love.
Gb                                  Ab
If I had picked her up on time, her precious love

would still be mine.
Db                                Bbm
The love, the love she gave to me will always stay with me.
Gb                                     Ab
Til the day we meet, til the day you return to me.

Db                           Bbm
Then my heart begins to cry, it hurts so deep inside.
Gb                      Ab                   Db
She's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay.
