Verse1

A        
Candles burning, 
A2                 
Glasses are chilled 
D                  Bm7
And soon, she'll be by... 
Bm7                   Bm7
Hope and pray she'll say that she's willing 
A7                       A - A7
To give us another try... 

Refrain
D                          Dm7
And if all these plans i made 
A                  Fm7
Don't melt the lady's heart,
D             A- A2                E7
I'll put on the old forty-fives... 


Chorus:
A7             Aaug
And maybe the old songs,
F#/A7              Fm7 
Will bring back the old times, 
Bm7                     Bm7
Maybe the old lines will sound new. 
Bm7                       E7
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder, 
A7                    A
Maybe old feelings will some through... 
D
Maybe we'll start to cry,
C#m               A7               Fm7
And wonder why...we ever walked away 

A
Maybe the old songs,
D 
Will bring back the old times 
Bm7            E7          A -A7
And make her wanna stay...oh--ohhh 

Verse 2
A
It's been too long without
A2                   
Seeing her face light up 
D              Bm7
When I come home. 
Bm7                 Bm7
Been to many hours i've waited 
A7               A-A7
Staring at the phone... 

Refrain:
D                  Dm7
Sweet old songs I'm counting on you
A                 Fm7 
Bring her back to me...
D            A-A2             E7
I'm tired of listening alone... 



Chorus:

Maybe the old songs, 
Will bring back the old times, 
Maybe the old lines will sound new. 
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder, 
Maybe old feelings will some through... 
Maybe we'll start to cry, 
And wonder why...we ever walked away 

Maybe the old songs, 
Will bring back the old times 
And make her wanna stay...oh--ohhh 

And make her wanna sta---y.
