Intro: A E A (on 3, quick strums)
(A) I had forgotten the (Bm) dress you wore
The (D) first time I ever saw you walking (A) through a door
And I had forgotten your (Bm) secret smile
That (D) seemed to say it's OK you can (A) stay a while
And I (D) never (A) kept a (E) trace
(D) Of your (A) voice your (E) touch your taste
(F#m) Or your per(Bm)fume
(D) I had for(A)gotten you
Then I got a letter it came today
From an old friend this is what he had to say
You know Frank Hannon well his wife just died
But the big news is he's already found another bride
You may remember her
She says you once went out with her
She was 22
She still remembers you
(F#m) She's been a widow for six (A) years
Now her children have left (D) home
She nursed Frank's wife for a (Bm) while
But nobody knew this was (E) going on
G D F#m E (2 bars each)
Now Mary comes to me she turns out the light
The after a while she asks me if I'm all right
Well I turn to hold her but I'm not there
Tonight I feel like both of us are made of air
Mary's hair is turning grey
And she worries about her weight
Do you too?
I had forgotten you
Nothing new I had forgotten you
