For the Good Times

by Ray Price

C             Dm               C

Don't look so s-ad I know it's over

              Dm               G7                  C

But life goes o-n and this old world  will keep on turning

      C7      F               G7             C

Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together

C7         F                  Dm                G7

There's no n-eed to watch the bridges that were burning

C                     G7

Lay your head upon my pillow

Hold your warm and tender body close to mine

G7       C              C7                F                Fm

Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft against the window

G7                   Dm               G7                 C

And make believe you love me one more t-ime for the good times

         Dm                 C

I'll get a-long you'll find another

            Dm                  G7                  C

And I'll be h-ere if you should f-ind you ever need me

      C7    F          G7             C

Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever

C7          F               Dm                G7

There'll be time enough for sad-ness when you leave me

C                     G7

Lay your head upon my pillow

Hold your warm and tender body close to mine

G7       C              C7                F                Fm

Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft against the window

G7                   Dm               G7                 C

And make believe you love me one more t-ime for the good times
