Her birthday came and went without a card or a single I Love You,
D
On their anniversary she sat all alone at a table set for two,
D
She tries her best to please him, but she never hears one single word of
praise,
D
She feels just like a stranger in a home where love has seen it's better days,
Chorus: A
D
God only knows why she keeps
hangin' on,
G
'Cause it's better to be gone,
but not forgotten,
D A D
Than to be forgotten, but not
gone,
A D
Somehow he can't remember when he's late to even take the time to call,
A
And even on the nights he's there, she gets the feelin', he's not there at
all,
D
She's become a prisoner in that big old house, where sweet love used to be,
D
Well it's not even over, but Lord, she feels just like a memory,
Repeat chorus
G A
Tag 'Cause it's better to gone but not forgotten, gone but not forgotten,
D A D
Than to be forgotten, but not gone.
