Written by Jake Landers/Bill Monroe
A
You say you're sorry once again dear
E A
You want me to take you back once more
D A
You say you need a helping hand dear
D E A
But that's what you told me once before
A
Walk softly on this heart of mine
E A
Don't treat it mean and so unkind
D A
Let it rest in peace and quiet love
D E A
Walk softly on this heart of mine 
A
I know someday you'll find a new love
E A
I feel your heart has turned to stone
D A
But please let me down real easy
D E A
Cause loneliness moves in as you move on
Chorus
Full
key step up
Half
key step up
Half
key step down
Full
key step down
