Intro: G
C
A hundred months have passed, Lor ena,
D G D
Since last I held your hand in mine,
G C
And felt your pulse beat fast, Lor ena,
D G
Though mine beat faster far than thine.
Em B7
Twas not thy woman's heart that spoke;
Em D
Thy heart was always true to me-ee-ee:
G C
So long ago Lorena you broke
D G
The tie which linked my soul with thee
C
We loved each other then, Lor ena,
D G D
Far more than we ever dared to tell;
G C
And just what might we have been, Lor ena,
D G
If our love had only prospered well
Em B7
But should we even consider one re gret
Em D
For what we?d be now we?ll neither never kno-oo- ow;
G C
For if we try we may for get,
D G
We're the words of thine long years a go.
Em B7 Em D G C D G
G C
It matters little now, Lor ena,
D G D
The past is in the eternal past;
G C
Our heads will one day lie low, Lor ena,
D G
Life?s time is fading out so fast.
Em B7
There is a Future O, thank God
Em D
Our lives this was so small a par-aaar- art
G C
'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod;
D G
But there, up there, heart to heart.
G C
Still the years creep slowly by, Lor ena,
D G D
The snow is on the ground a gain.
G C
The sun?s low down the sky, Lor ena,
D G
And the frost again gleams where the flow'rs have been.
