[Introduction] G D7 G [Verse 1]
     G            G7         C              G
Last night I came home and I knocked on the door

  G                                D7
I called to my love as I oft had before

  G             G7             C            G
I knocked and I knocked but no answer there came

   G                     D7            G
No kisses to greet me no voice call my name
[Chorus]
  G                               G7
I couldn't believe it was true oh Lord

  C                       G
I couldn't believe it was true

   G
My eyes filled with tears I must have aged ten years

  G          D7           G
I couldn't believe it was true
[Verse 2]
  G          G7       C             G
I let myself in and I walked to our bed

  G                                    D7
I found a note there and the message I read

    G            G7            C           G
The truth like a bolt from the blue in the dawn

   G                         D7          G
My sweetheart had left me my darling had gone
[Chorus]
  G                               G7
I couldn't believe it was true oh Lord

  C                       G
I couldn't believe it was true

   G
My eyes filled with tears I must have aged ten years

  G          D7           G
I couldn't believe it was true
[Instrumental] G G7 C G G D7 G G7 C G G D7 G [Verse 3]
    G            G7         C         G
The shock was so great I am quivering yet

     G                              D7
I'll try to forgive but I cannot forget

   G             G7        C           G
My heartbreaking loss is another man's gain

   G                   D7          G
Her happiness always I hope will remain
[Instrumental] G G7 C G G D7 G G7 C G G D7 G [Chorus]
  G                               G7
I couldn't believe it was true oh Lord

  C                       G
I couldn't believe it was true

   G
My eyes filled with tears I must have aged ten years

  G          D7           G
I couldn't believe it was true
