    A very old friend   came by today
    Em            G          Em
     Cos' he was telling everyone in town
     G                Em
     Of the love that he'd just found
                     C                   D
     And Marie's the name of his latest flame.
    He talked and talked and I heard him say
     That she had the longest blackest hair
     The prettiest green eyes anywhere
     And Marie's the name of his latest flame.
     D                   C                    D     C
    Though I smiled the tears inside were a burnin'
         D                 C              D    C
     I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
         D                C                    D      C
     And he was gone but still his words kept returning
          D                 C             G  Em  G  Em
     What else was left for me to do but cry.
    Would you believe that yesterday
     This girl was in my arms and sworing me
     She'd be mine eternally
     And Marie's the name of his latest flame.
    Though I smiled . . .
