He Stopped Loving Her Today

Jake Worthington

[Verso 1]

He said, "I'll love you till I die"

She told him, "You'll forget in time"

E B7

As the years went slowly by

She still preyed upon his mind

[Verso 2]

He kept some pictures on his wall

Went half crazy now and then

But he still loved her through it all

Hoping she'd come back again

[Verso 3]

C F

Kept some letters by his bed

Oh, dated 1962

He had underlined in red

C7 F

Every single "I love you"

[Verso 4]

I went to see my friend today

Oh, but I didn't see no tears

All dressed up to go away

First time I'd seen him smile in years

[Refrão]

He stopped loving her today

They placed a wreath upon his door

Soon they'll carry him away

He stopped loving her today

[Ponte]

You know, she came to see him one last time

Ah, and we all wondered if she would

And it kept running through my mind

"This time, he's over her for good"

[Refrão]

C F

He stopped loving her today

They placed a wreath upon his door

Soon they'll carry him away
