He Stopped Loving Her Today

[Verse]

G

He said I'll love you 'til I die

C

She told him you'll forget in time

D

As the years went slowly by

G

She still preyed upon his mind

G

He kept her picture on his wall

C

Went half crazy now and then

D

He still loved her through it all

G

Hoping she'd come back again

[Chorus]

G#

Kept some letters by his bed

C#

Dated nineteen-sixty-two

D#

He had underlined in red

G#

Every single I love you

[Verse]

G#

I went to see him just today

C#

Oh, but I didn't see no tears

D#

All dressed up to go away

G#

First time I'd seen him smile in years

[Chorus]

G#

He stopped loving her today

C#

They placed a wreath upon his door

D#

And soon they'll carry him away

G#

He stopped loving her today

[Verse]

G#

You know, she came to see him one last time

C#

Aw, and we all wondered if she would

D#

And it kept running through my mind

G#

This time he's over her for good

[Chorus]

G#

He stopped loving her today

C#

They placed a wreath upon his door

D#

And soon they'll carry him away

G#

He stopped loving her today
