A Moment Isn't Very Long
Recorded by Faron Young written by Willie Nelson

C                            G7
Yesterday as I talked with a friend in town 
                                C
I forgot to remember that you'd gone
               C7            F
For a moment I almost forgot you 
      C      G7         C
But a moment isn't very long

                                  G7
And last night as I danced with a stranger 
                                   C
And she held her cheek close to my own
                        C7       F
And for a moment I found my lips smiling 
      C      G7         C
But a moment isn't very long

                           G7
Every now and then I get a chance to smile
                                           C
But those every now and then’s just last a little while
                                   G7
And tonight I've got a date with a new love 
                                  C
But I know I'd do just as well at home

                              F
For a moment maybe I could forget you 
      C      G7         C
But a moment isn't very long
            G7         C
No a moment isn't very long
