Forgive me John, [Ab] [F] but I don't love [C] your brother _ _ _
I realize _ now that [A] you're the [E] only [Em] _ _ [G] one _ _
Ride [Cm] and _ tell [F] me dear that you'll [C] still have _ me
If I [Em] undo _ _ [G] the awful _ [C] wrong I've [Cm] done
_ [C] _ _
_ I'll _ _ [F] try to answer your letter the [C] best that I know how
_ The way I feel about you honey really doesn't matter now
[Am] [G] As you know the boys will be coming home soon
[C] To [Em] be with their [F] wives and their ma and pa
[C] _ I'd like to come home, _ I'd like [G] to see you
As a wife, _
[A] [G] but [C] not as a sister-in-law _ _
Forgive me John, [F] but I don't love your [C] brother _ _
I realize _ now that you're [Gbm] the [Em] only _ _ [G] one _
_ [C] Ride and _ tell [F] me dear that you'll [C] still have _ me _
If [G] I undo _ the awful _ [C] wrong I've _ done _
Forgive me John, _ [E] [F] but I don't love your [C] brother _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I realize now that you're the only one
And he [G] married you, and I could never do him like he done me
[C] But I wish you [F] happiness forever
May you [C] make him a true and loving wife
There's nothing for me [Gm] to come home for now
