My true love was true.

Something here inside,

 Cannot be denied.

F                      Dm
So I chaffed them and I gayly laughed,
                     Gm         C
To think they could doubt my love.
F                     Dm         D
Yet today my love has flown away.
      A          E
I am without my love.

And now laughing friends deride,

 Tears I cannot hide.
B              C#m
So I smile and say,

Smoke gets in your eyes.
