Intro: ( A5 G5 )3x D5

D5                G5      D5      A5              D5
If you see him , say hello, he might be in Tangier
D5                  G5       D5                        C5   A5
He left here last early spring, is livin' there, I hear
 B5              G5       D5
Say for me that I'm all right though
                    G5
things get kind of slow
          B5                 A5
He might think that I've forgotten him ,
       G5                 D5
Don't tell him it isn't so.
D5         G5       D5    A5                 D5
We had a falling-out, like lovers often will
         D5              G5         D5
And to think of how he left that night,
                       C5   A5
it still brings me a chill 
     B5             G5  D5 
And though our separation, 
                       G5
it pierced me to the heart 
 B5               A5           G5                 D5
He still lives inside of me, we've never been apart
D5           G5        D5  A5                   D5
If you get close to him , kiss him once for me
                  G5      D5
I always have respected him
                                   C5 A5
for doing what he did and gettin' free
B5                      G5    D5
Oh, whatever makes him happy,
                      G5
I won't stand in the way
 B5                            A5 
Though the bitter taste still lingers on
          G5                          D5
from the night I tried to make him stay
D5               G5   D5 A5              D5
I see a lot of people as I make the rounds
                     G5         D5
And I hear his name here and there
                      C5 A5
as I go from town to town
          B5          G5       D5
And I've never gotten used to it, 
                              G5
I've just learned to turn it off
B5              A5           G5                 D5
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
D5         G5       D5   A5             D5
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
               G5       D5
I know every scene by heart,
                     C5 A5
they all went by so fast
B5               G5         D5
If he's passin' back this way,
                      G5
I'm not that hard to find
B5               A5          G5               D5
Tell him he can look me up if he's got the time.
