He Stopped Loving Her Today

	  		  
                             G  
He said I'll love you till I die  
                              C  
She told him you'll forget in time  
                         D  
As the years went slowly by  
                          G  
She still preyed upon his mind  
                           G  
He kept her picture on his wall  
                        C  
Went half crazy now and then  
                              D  
He still loved her through it all  
                        G  
Hoping she'd come back again  

Key Change- Half Step Up 
  
                         G#  
Kept some letters by his bed  
        C#  
Dated 1962  
                     D#  
He had underlined in red  
                    G#  
Every single I love you  
                         G# 
I went to see him just today  
                       C# 
Oh but I didn't see no tears  
                      D#  
All dressed up to go away  
                                 G# 
First time I'd seen him smile in years  
  
  
  
  
Chorus:  
                      G#      G#7  
He stopped loving her today  
                              C#  
They placed a wreath upon his door  
                              D#  
And soon they'll carry him away  
                      G#  
He stopped loving her today  
  
  
                                      G#  
You know she came to see him one last time  
                             C# 
Oh and we all wondered if she would  
                               D# 
And it kept running through my mind  
                            G#  
This time he's over her for good  
  
  
Chorus  
  
He stopped loving her today
