Last night I came home and I knocked at my door
G D7
And I called for my love as I oft had before
G G7 C G
I called once again but no answer there came
G D7 G
No sweet lips to greet me no voice call my name
[Chorus]

I couldn't believe it was true oh Lord

I couldn't believe it was true

My eyes filled with tears and I must have aged ten years

I couldn't believe it was true

The truth like a bolt from the blue then begone

My sweetheart had left me my darling was gone
