Intro: (D D If you see him, say hello, he might be in Tangier A He left here last early spring, is livin' there, I hear D Say for me that I'm all right though G things get kind of slow A He might think that I've forgotten him, D Don't tell him it isn't so. D
We had a falling-out, like lovers often will D And to think of how he left that night, A it still brings me a chill D And though our separation, G it pierced me to the heart D He still lives inside of me, we've never been apart D If you get close to him, kiss him once for me D I always have respected him A for doing what he did and gettin' free D Oh, whatever makes him happy, G I won't stand in the way A Though the bitter taste still lingers on D from the night I tried to make him stay D I see a lot of people as I make the rounds D And I hear his name here and there A as I go from town to town D And I've never gotten used to it, G I've just learned to turn it off D Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft. D Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past D I know every scene by heart, A they all went by so fast D If he's passin' back this way, G I'm not that hard to find D Tell him he can look me up if he's got the time.
