Tom: C C As I walked through the door and my eyes fit the darkness F I saw him alone at the bar G7 I went over to him said you may not know me C But I sure do know who you are But don't worry my anger was spent long ago F And only the memory remains G7 But lord how I suffered sometimes I still wonder C And maybe now you can explain Tell me how could I love her so much G7 And then lose her so quickly to someone like you How did you know how to hold her and please her C How did you know what to do After all of the time I spent learning to love her F And be what she needed me to G7 Tell me how could I love her so much C And then lose her so quickly to someone like you He said friend let me buy you a drink and I'll tell you F A story that's sad but it's true G7 How I loved her and held her till some drifter stole her C From me like I stole her from you I guess no one can own her hearts like a soldier F Of fortune her love like the wind G7 Still all I can think of is finding her new love C And asking this question of him Tell me how could I love her so much G7 And then lose her so quickly to someone like you How did you know how to hold her and please her C How did you know what to do After all of the time I spent learning to love her F And be what she needed me to G7 Tell me how could I love her so much C And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
