B E B
In a lonely room waiting for the night to fall
F#
I hear your voice in every whip-poor-will that calls
B E B
And it takes me back to a better place and a sweeter time
F# B
When I was yours and you were mine
E B
As the shadows fall and the light grows dim I see your face
F#
I Close my eyes and feel the warmth of your embrace
B
As I long for you
E B
And for all those days when hearts entwined
F# B
When I was yours and you were mine
F#
When I was yours and you were mine
E B
A truer love you couldn't find ??
F#
Ever waltzed across these hills and danced beneath the stars
E B
Life was sweeter than the flowers blooming on the vines
F# B
When I was your and you were mine
SOLO
B
So I lay my head
E B
On a pillow soft and stained with tears
F#
I cry for you through all the long and lonely years
B E B
But when I dream till the morning suns comes to shine
F# B
Then I'll be yours and you'll be mine
B E B
Yes I will go back to a better place and a sweeter time
F# E B
When I was yours and you were mine
