[Intro] G C G C D D7 G C G D G [Verse 1]
     G      C                   G
Back in the hills, when we were only kids

                   C               D    D7
Love shined like a diamond in your eyes

  G         C               G
I swore I'd never hurt you, then I did

             D                G     G7
Now I'm all alone with all my lies
[Bridge]
  C                       G
I promised that I'd never be untrue

    D     A    A7  D    D7
I'd never make you cry

    G    C              G
The only promise that I didn't break

                D              G
Was to love you till the day I die
[Solo] G C G C D G C G C D G [Verse 2]
  G        C                G
I wish I'd never seen those city lights

              C              D    D7
A sight for a country boy to see

    G     C                G
For every one that you see shining bright

           D                G     G7
Another is burning out like me
[Bridge]
  C                          G
I wouldn't listen though you told me, dear

  D        A   A7  D    D7
I couldn't see the lie

    G       C                  G
But all the same, I still love you tonight

                  D              G
And I'll love you till the day I die
[Solo] G C G C D G C G D G G7 C G D A7 D D7 G C G D G [Verse 3]
     G          C               G
They built this prison just for fools like me

               C             D    D7
Who don't know treasure from stone

  G        C                G
I killed a man, now I won't ever see

                  D                 G     G7
The green rolling hills where I was born
[Bridge]
                          G
No, I won't ever see your face again

    D    A     A7 D    D7
But if I close my eyes

      G      C                G
I can almost hear you call me back to then

                  D              G
And I'll love you till the day I die

              D              G
I'll love you till the day I die
