            |                  A|       A|      A|E  
 Well, she's leaving today, I do know ... so far away
    |                     E|           E|           E|    A|
 I'm feelin' so blue and it shows ... in every single way
|                       A|       A|               A|E  
 Once, that girl, she was mine ... for such a short time
   |                  E|            E|          E|   A|
 We used to spend every night ... now all I do is cry
[Chorus]
      |                  D|       A|                          E|A  
 Well, say, that you can't miss ... somethin' that you've never had
    |      D|      A|     G              E|   A|
 So, tell me why ... why I could feel so bad

         |                    A|       A|               A|E  
 Well, we used to walk down the path ... just like lovers do
      |                    E|              E|                           E|       A|
 She'd hold my hand and we'd laugh, then I'd stare in her eyes, they were blue, oh
|                       A|       A|               A|E  
 Once, that girl, she was mine ... for such a short time
