G                           C
You said you love me and me alone 

               D7                G
And that you'd always be mine my own

                                 C
But someone new came and you did not 

        G        D7        G
Care to remember so you forgot

 
                               C
Oh careless darling how carelessly 

              D7                  G
You broke the vow that you made to me

                                C
With all my heart I believed in you 

             G       D7         G
But careless darling you were untrue

 
                               C
Your last goodbye will forever ring
 
          D7                      G
Within my ear and full heartaches bring

                            C
I kept my promise I kept my vow 

             G       D7            G
But you kept nothing it's so plain now

 
                               C
Oh careless darling how carelessly 

              D7                  G
You broke the vow that you made to me

                                C
With all my heart I believed in you 

             G       D7         G
But careless darling you were untrue

 
                             C
Now if tomorrow those bygone years 

            D7                        G
Those older memories should bring you tears

                                   C
Think of our parting that luckless day
 
            G        D7       G
You carelessly threw my love away

 
                               C
Oh careless darling how carelessly 

              D7                  G
You broke the vow that you made to me

                                C
With all my heart I believed in you 

             G       D7         G
But careless darling you were untrue
