Standard (EADGBE)

You promised me love - that would never die

That promise you made - was only a lie

Now after you've gone - all alone I'll pine

For all that I've got - is a Worried Mind

I gave you a ring - I gave you a home

You promised me true - that you'd never roam

I bought you find clothes - and I bought you wine

But all that you gave - is a Worried Mind.

And when I was down - you just left me there

I needed you so - but you didn't care

You found a new love - and a home so fine

But all that I've got - is a Worried Mind.

REPEAT 1st VERSE
