A very old friend came by today
Em
'Cos he was telling everyone in town
Em
About the love that he just found
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Em
He talked and talked and I heard him say
Em
That she had the longest blackest hair
Em
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
C
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
C
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
C
He was gone but still his words kept returning
C
What else was there for me to do but cry
Em
Would you believe that yesterday
Em
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
Em
She'd be mine eternally
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Repete chorus
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
Em C D GEm
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
