Then And Only Then chords by Loretta Lynn

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
C  G  D7  G

Verse 1:
G
In your haste you left and said you'd be returnin'
G                                 D   D7
In my sorrow I forgot to ask you when
       G
In my lonely room I sit and count the hours
       C             G                D7                 G
Every minute hopin' I'll look up and you'll come walkin' in

Chorus:
G             C    G
For then and only then will I stop cryin'
                 C        G                  D   D7
And this aching breaking heart of mine will mend
G            C               G
Not until I feel your arms around me
     C           G              D7            G
Will I be happy and I live for then and only then

Solo:
G  C  G  D  G

Verse 2:
G
All that's left inside my heart is just your echo
G                                       D7
And the tiny thread of hope to which I cling
       G
But if I keep holding on maybe some day
          C                G                D       D7   G
You'll remember where you left me and come back for me again


Chorus:
G             C    G
For then and only then will I stop cryin'
                 C        G                  D   D7
And this aching breaking heart of mine will mend
G            C               G
Not until I feel your arms around me
     C           G              D7            G   G
Will I be happy and I live for then and only then
