[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well, hello there.
_ _ [Eb] My, it's been a long, [Bb] long time. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] Oh, I guess that I do [Bb] a fine.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] It's been so long now, _ and it seems that it [Eb] was only yesterday.
[C] _ Gee, [F] ain't it funny _ how time slips [Bb] away?
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _
[Bb] How's your new love?
_ _ [Eb] I hope that she's [Bb] doing fine.
Heard _ _ _ you told her _ [Eb] that you'd love her till the [Bb] end of time.
_ _ _ _ Now that's the same thing _ that you told me.
Seems [Eb] like just the other [C] day.
Gee, [F] ain't it funny _ how time [A] _
[Bb] slips away?
[Gm] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _
[Bb] Gotta go now.
_ _ [Eb] _ Guess I'll see [Bb] you around.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
Don't know when though.
_ [Eb] Never know when [Bb] I'll be back in town.
_ _ _ But just remember what I tell [D] you, and [Eb] darling, _ you're gonna [C] be patient.
And it's [F] surprising _ how time _ slips away.

[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ _ Heselot's most requested song was [A] a major hit for Ferlin Husky, one of our most interesting pioneers in country music.
[D] Ferlin has appeared as a dramatic [E] actor on the early craft TV theater [A] in movies such as Mr.
Rock and Roll and Country [D] Music Holiday.
Performed comedy, of course, [Dbm] as his alter ego, Simon Crumb.
And [Bm] that sort of brings me to what I want to point out here.
[E] Under another assumed name, Terry Preston to be precise, [Gbm] Ferlin recorded this song and [F] that was no success at all.
So five [Bm] years later in 1957, [D] as Ferlin Husky, [E] he recorded it again.
And it busted both the pop and country charts wide open.
[A] Tonight, the statless answers so many requests with Gone.
