INTRO: Ab Db
#1.
Db BbmOn my way to the senior prom, I saw a crowd
all gathered round.
Gb AbI stopped the car, got out to see just what
it could be.
Db BbmThere lying near the crowd was a girl dressed
in a gown.
Gb AbI walked up so I could see just who it could be.
#2.
Db BbmKnelt down by her side..tears came into my eyes.
Gb AbDid there lie the one I love..the one I'd always love.
Db BbmThen she said, take this ring of mine, you are my
love divine.
Gb Ab DbAnd as our lips met, I know, I can't forget..the way
Bbmmy heart cried..the way it hurt inside.
Gb Ab DbShe's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay.
Bbm Db Bbm(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.)
BRIDGE:(Spoken:)
Db BbmThere lies the one I love..the one I'll always love.
Gb AbIf I had picked her up on time, her precious love
would still be mine.
Db BbmThe love, the love she gave to me will always stay with me.
Gb AbTil the day we meet, til the day you return to me.
#3.
Db BbmThen my heart begins to cry, it hurts so deep inside.
Gb Ab DbShe's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay.
OUTRO:
