The Keeper of the Key
The Keeper of the Key
by Wanda Jackson
CFC
You have gone and yetI'm still your prisoner
D7G7
Though you're with your new love I'm not free
CFC
For you have placed a lock around my heart dear
G7C
And you are the keeper of the key
FC
Love locked inside like mine just burns constantly
D7G7
Oh darling please come back to me
CFC
We'll lock our hearts together for a lifetime
G7C
And God will be the keeper of the key
FC
Only you can break the chains that bind me
D7G7
Only you can end my misery
CFC
No one else can dry the tears that blind me
G7C
For you are the keeper of the key
