Tell Laura I Love Her

	  		
G               C 
Tommy and Laura were lovers     
   G                  C 
He wanted to give her everything  
Em      Am           D7 
Flowers presents and most of all a wedding ring  
  
G                   C 
He saw a sign for a stock car race     
G                 C 
A thousand dollar prize it read  
   Em                 Am 
He couldn't get Laura on the phone  
D7 
So to her mother Tommy said  
  
G                                  Am 
Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her  
             G                Am 
Tell Laura I may be late I've something to do  
D7          G 
That cannot wait  
  
                        C 
He drove his car to the racing ground  
G                   C 
He was the youngest driver there  
          Em                         Am 
The crowd roared as they started the race  
          D7 
Round the track they drove at a deadly pace  
  
G                 C 
No-one knows what happened that day  
G               C 
How his car overturned in flames  
    Em                          Am 
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck  
         D7 
With his dying breath they heard him say  
  
G                                  Am 
Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her   
           G             Am 
Tell Laura not to cry my love for her  
D7         G 
Will never die  
  
                  C 
Now in the chapel Laura prays      
G                 C 
For her Tommy who passed away  
       Em                Am 
It was just for Laura he lived and died  
D7 
Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry   
G                                  Am 
Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her   
           G             Am 
Tell Laura not to cry my love for her  
D7         G 
Will never die  

   Am            D7         G 
My love for her  will never die
