C G7
Oh the years we shared together are so great in memory
F C
I don’t think I’ll ever live long enough to be free

For the pleasures of our love was over shadowed by the pain
F C
So we’ll say goodbye forever I can’t walk that road again
E7 A7
No I’m not looking back anymore our love was sweet
F G7 C
But time has slowly closed the door
E7 A7
Now there’s thorns where the flowers once grew
G7 C
This is the end for me and you
D7 G7 C
And I’m not looking back anymore
G7
When you know you’ve done the best you can that’s all that you can do
F C
And I know I did the best I could to get along with you

And if I’d known of something else I would have tried that too

But I see my mistake one can’t love enough for two

No and I’m not looking back anymore

I’ve still got what’s left of me

It’s hard to make a new start when the world has made you old
F C
And the years have made you bitter and heartaches turn you cold

And you keep on turning backwards to the moments that have fled
F C
A man can’t keep on living with that cloud over his head
E7 A7
So I’m not looking back anymore

I’ll throw away the cloths the old times wore

Tomorrow is another day

Perhaps true love will come my way
D7 G7 C
And I’m not looking back anymore
D7 G7 C
No I’m not looking back anymore
