I THOUGHT OF YOU
- Jean Shepard-
(C) Last night another held me in (F) his (C) arms,
A lov-(G7)-er's moon was shining bright and (C) clear;
He whispered words of love so ten-(F)-der-(C)-ly,
But I (G7) couldn't say the words he longed to (C) hear.
Chorus:
(C) I thought of (F) you and things that might have (C) been,
I thought of you and it was useless to (G7) pretend;
For (C) when he asked me if I loved him (F) too,
I (C) closed my eyes sweetheart and (G7) thought of (C) you.
As he held me so closely in (F) his (C) arms,
I (G7) tried to find the thrill that we once (C) knew;
It would have broken his heart if he (F) had (C) known,
That (G7) I was just pretending it was (C) you.
I guess I'll face the future all (F) a-(C)-lone,
It (G7) seems there's nothing else for me to (C) do;
And when I need someone to call (F) my (C) own,
I'll (G7) close my eyes sweetheart and think of (C) you.
