D (xx0232@1)                       AI (x02220@1)can't forget that you told me ,So many promising lies
                     Ei'm (022100@1)gonna try to forget these
                      ALonesome (x02220@1)tears in my eyes

next verse:
You've broken my heart, Gonna do it again
   I can't get outta this spell, you've got me in
   I can't forget that you told me, So many promising lies
   I'm a-trying to forget these, Lonesome tears in my eyes

and end with:
