G He said I'll love you till I die C She told him you'll forget in time D As the years went slowly by G She still preyed upon his mind G He kept her picture on his wall C Went half crazy now and then D He still loved her through it all G Hoping she'd come back again Key Change- Half Step Up G# Kept some letters by his bed C# Dated 1962 D# He had underlined in red G# Every single I love you G# I went to see him just today C# Oh but I didn't see no tears D# All dressed up to go away G# First time I'd seen him smile in years Chorus: G# G#7 He stopped loving her today C# They placed a wreath upon his door D# And soon they'll carry him away G# He stopped loving her today G# You know she came to see him one last time C# Oh and we all wondered if she would D# And it kept running through my mind G# This time he's over her for good Chorus He stopped loving her today
