G5                            B5   
I tried to save a girl I truly loved
                             E5 ( E5 F#5 G5 A5 )
And didn't quite know how to help her
   G5                                      B5 
So now she's sleeping as her parents up above
                                E5 ( E5 F#5 G5 A5 )
Cry over things that they can't tell her

    C5                   
And when I did my good deed
              B5            E5
I thought I'd feel unbroken gladness
    C5                           
But standing in the street alone
  B5                E5
I just felt sinking sadness

           C5               G5    
Girl, your dad will not us bless
        B5               E5
So hang up your veil and dress
        C5               G5
Look at me and take one guess
           B5               D5
Where this best-intentioned love will lead us


And repeat this for the rest of the song.

Cheers!
