Start Jamming...
[Ab] [Eb] I believe Chris Christopherson wrote the best breaking up song ever written.
Hearing Ray Price sing [Gm] about lovers at the end of a [Bb] relationship touched so many people with its honesty and humanity
that I wanted very much to share the memory of the good times.
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Cm] Don't look so sad.
[Eb]
[Dm] I know [Bb] it's over.
[Gm] [F]
[Bb] But [Eb] life goes on.
And this old world [F] will [Bb] keep on turning.
[Gm] [Ab]
[Gm] [Bb] [Cm] Let's just be glad [Eb] we [F] had some [Eb] time to [Bb] spend together.
[F] [Bb]
[Eb] There's no [G] need to watch [Eb] the bridges that [F] were burning.
[Eb]
When I wrote this song [Bb] I was in a relationship that was coming to [Gm] an end.
And [Cm] I needed to express my
[F] appreciation and my respect for the love that had been shared in that relationship.
And a tender body [Bb] close to mine.
[Cm]
[F] [Dm] [Bb] Hear the whisper [Dm] [Fm] of the [Bb] raindrops [Eb] blowing soft [Ebm] against the window.
[C] [F] And make believe [Cm] you love me [F] one more time [Bb] for the good times.
[Eb]
[Bb] [Dm]
[Gm] [Cm] I'll get along and [Eb]
[Dm] [Bb] you'll find another.
[Gm] [F]
[Gm] And [Cm] I'll be here [Eb] if you should find [F] you [Bb] ever need [Gm] me.
[Fm]
[Gm] [Eb] Don't say a word about [Eb] tomorrow [Bb] or forever.
[Dm] [Gm]
[Eb] There'll be [F] time enough [Cm] for sadness [Eb] when [F] you leave me.
[Bb] Just lay your head [Gm]
upon [Cm] my pillow.
[F] Hold your warm [Cm] and tender [F] body [Bb] close.
[Dm] [Gm] [Cm]
[F] And [Bb] hear the whisper [F] [Fm] of the [Bb] raindrops [Eb] blowing soft [Cm] [C] against the window.
[F] And make believe [Eb] you love [Cm] me one [F] more time for
[Eb] [Bb] the good times.
