C                           F           Dm              C
And I thought I could never let you go, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
C                             F    Dm               C
What once was new soon turned old, oh-oh-old, oh, oh
C                               F         Dm             C
And I left you right out in the cold, the coh-oh-old, oh, oh


[Chorus]
C                     C7
Why did I leave you? Why did I go?
F                                Dm
  I cannot tell you, baby, 'cause I don't know
C                               F  Dm         C
  Please forgive me, when we're o-o-old and grey


[Verse 2]
C                           F        Dm               C
The day I thought I saw the sun, the suh-uh-un, uh huh
C                           F      Dm             C
And that is where it all begun, beguh-uh-un, uh oh
C                               F      Dm          C
It looked so close that I could touch, tou-uh-uh-uh-uch
C                             F         Dm
But then it all got to be too much, too muh-uh-uch
      C
Oh, oh


[Chorus]
C                     C7
Why did I leave you? Why did I go?
F                                Dm
  I cannot tell you, baby, 'cause I don't know
C                               F  Dm         C
  Please forgive me, when we're o-o-old and grey
