INTRO: C

C C7 G

Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend

C

What have I done that's made you so distant and cold

C7 F

Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again

G C

Will you be happy girl when you are withered and old

I can't offer you diamonds or mansions so fine

And I can't offer you clothes your young body craves

But if you'd love me and say that you'd always be mine

Just think of the heartaches, the teardrops, and sorrow you'd save

SOLO

When you are weary and tired of another man's gold

If you ever get lonesome remember this letter, my own

But don't try to answer, though I suffer sorrow untold

If you don't love me I wish you would leave me alone

OUTRO: G C
