I Couldn't Believe It Was True

by Marty Robbins

C                            F             C

Last night I come home and I knocked on my door

G7

I called to my love as I oft had before

C                              F            C

I knocked and I knocked but no answer there came

                         G7              C

No kisses to greet me no voice called my name

C7

I couldn't believe it was true oh Lord

  F                       C

I couldn't believe it was true

My eyes filled with tears I must have aged ten years

           G7             C

I couldn't believe it was true

                      F             C

I let myself in and I walked to our bed

G7

I found a note there and the message it read

    C                          F           C

The truth like a bolt from the blue in the dawn

                             G7          C

My sweetheart had left me my darling had gone

repeat #2

                            F         C

The shock was so great I am quivering yet

G7

I tried to forgive but I cannot forget

   C                     F             C

My heartbreaking loss is another man's gain

                       G7        C

Her happiness always I hope will remain

repeat #2
