G C D7 G
You said you love me and me alone and that you'd always be mine my own
C G D7 G
But someone new came and you did not care to remember so you forgot
[Chorus]
C D7 G
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
C G D7 G
With all my heart I believed in you but careless darlin' you were untrue
[Verse]
C D7 G
Your last goodbye will forever ring within my ear and full heartaches bring
C G D7 G
I kept my promise I kept my vow but you kept nothin' it's so plain now
[Chorus]
C D7 G
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
C G D7 G
With all my heart I believed in you but careless darlin' you were untrue
[Verse]
C D7 G
Now if tomorrow those bygone years those older memories should bring you tears
C G D7 G
Think of our parting that luckless day you carelessly threw my love away
[Chorus]
C D7 G
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
C G D7 G
With all my heart I believed in you but careless darlin' you were untrue
