Introduction:
C Am Dm C
I once had a darling sweetheart, and I loved her so
Am D7 G
Loved her more than I could ever let my poor heart show
C Am Dm C
She went away and left me, she found somebody else
Am Dm F C
Left me here in this old world to cry all to myself
Am Dm C
Stone must be the wall built around your heart
Am D7 G
I still love you darling, but the time has come to part
C Am Dm C
No more sorrow, no more pain can enter this heart of mine
Am Dm F C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind
C Am Dm C
I know somewhere in this old world there is a girl for me
Am D7 G
A girl who longs for wealth and fame, for love and sympathy
C Am Dm C
I don't know where she lives, maybe across the sea
Am Dm F C
But the walls of Jerico can't keep her away from me
Am Dm C
Stone must be the wall built around your heart
Am D7 G
I still love you darling, but the time has come to part
C Am Dm C
No more sorrow, no more pain can enter this heart of mine
Am Dm F C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind
C Am Dm F C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind
