The same old me  (Country 1, 1959)     (video)

 

    A - D - E - E7 - A

 

                   A                                              D

1. When I saw you with your new love today,

         E                  E7                A

    it hurt me in an old familiar way,

                  A                                     D

    and I know there's nothing I can do,

               E                        E7                    A

    but I'll always be here waiting just for you.

 

                 A                             D

With the same two arms still missing you,

                E             E7                     A

and the same old heart still being true,

                                                         D

and the same two Lips, they still belong to you,

               E             E7                       A

and the same old me keeps loving you.

 

+  A - D - E - E7 - A (2x)  +  D - A

 

                 A                                            D

2. I have tried everything to drive you from my heart,

                    E                     E7                          A

    but the memory of you makes me feel so blue,

                    A                                              D

    and with every heartbeat I can feel the teardrops start,

                    E                       E7                     A

    so you'll always find me waiting here for you.

 

+  CHORUS
