[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
On my way to [C]the senior prom,
[Am]Saw a crowd all gathered 'round,
[F]Stopped the car, got out to [G]see,
Just what it could [C]be,

[Verse 2]
There lying [C]near the [Am]crowd,
Was a girl dressed [F]in a gown,
Walked up so I could see,
[G]Just who, it could be,[C]

[Verse 3]
Knelt down [C]by her [Am]side,
Tears came [Bbm]into my e[Am]ye s[F],
There lie the one [F#]love,[G]
[Ab]One [G]I'd always love,[C]
Then she [Db]said [C]"Take this

[Verse 4]
[Db]
ring [C]of [Am]mine,
You are my love di[Bbm]vine"
[F]And as our lips met[G],
I know I [Ab]can't forget,

[Verse 5]
[Db]The way my heart cried[Bbm],
The way it hurt inside,
[Gb]She's gone[F] so far away[G],
[Ab]My lonel[G]y heart, must pay,[C][Am]
She's [C]gone, [Am]gone, she's [C]gone,

[Verse 6]
There lies [Db]the, the [C]one [Am]I love,
The one, I'll, I'll always [F]love,
If I'd have picked her up on time,
[G]

[Verse 7]
The Precious love would still be mine,
[C]
The love, the love she gave [Am]to me,
Will always stay with me,
[F]Till the day we meet,
Till the day we meet [G]in [C]eternity,
Then my heart begins to [Am]cry,
It hurts [Bbm]so dee[Am]p inside,
[F]She's gone so far awa[G]y,
My lonely heart, must [C]pay,
[Am]She's [C]gone, [Am]gone, [C]she's gone...
