 E        G#       A               E                     G#   A   EAnd if I said, I never thought of you, Well that'd be a lie.

    C#m             B         A          EAnd I thought we'd meet up in a week or two
    C#m             B         A            EAnd we'd slow-dance to Patsy Cline at the bar
    C#m             G#/C  A  EBut now that you're gone
    G#/C     C#m    EMy life goes on.
