CAPO: 2nd Fret/KEY: E/PLAY: D
(D) Now and then an (G) old friend tries to (D) help me
By telling me there's someone I should (A7) meet
But (D) I don't have the (G) heart to start all (D) over
'Cause my heart is laying (A7) at another's (D) feet.
 
[Refrão](D) You just don't put new (G) patches on old (D) garments
I don't want no one else on my (A7) mind (E) (A7)
I (D) just don't need no-(G) body new to (D) cling to
I still love someone I've (A7) known a long, long (D) time.
 
I have built my world around a mem'ry
And she's the only one that I let in
Ev'ry-time I've tried to love somebody
In my mind I'm loving her again.
 
CHORUS
