[Verse 1]
G C D She had left him lost and broken G Like no other had before C D And now his heart was just a token G Of the pain it had endured C D And his memories were clouded G With all the hurtful things she'd said C D Yes, for all intent and purpose G He might just as well been dead
[Chorus]
D C G And some people claim they still hear him call her name D C G Hey hey Maureen swear they hear him just that plain D C G Deep in the night, Lord, and sometimes right at dawn C See his body died some years ago D G Around here Mr Johnson's love lives on
[Verse 2]
C D He seemed far away and distant G With that cold and silent stare C D Never moving, never speaking G And just barely breathing air C D No one really knew her reason G And who can judge her right or wrong C D The only true and solemn fact is G The man we'd known was all but gone
(Chorus)
[Fiddle Solo]
G C D G
[Verse 3]
C D Sissy Thompson said she'd seen him G Late that night on Shelby road C D About a mile from there they found him G It seems he died out in the snow C D I hear'd the preacher at the service G Say from love he's finally free C D But I say love it knows no season G It haunts the soul eternally
(Chorus)
C D G Yes, his body died some years ago around here Mr. Johnson's love lives on...
