Intro: D--F#m--
D F#m
Today I heard my favorite song on the radio
D F#m
I closed my eyes and saw our first hello
D A
And then I saw the time we fell in love
E/G# F#m
In each others' arms
D E
I open my eyes and you were gone
D F#m
Suddenly I realized how I love you so
D F#m
And how I get surprised without your love
D
Since the time we said goodbye
A E/G# F#m
It's hard to make you stay
D E
How I wish you'd never go away
Chorus
D E A
Don't say goodbye, it's hard to let you go
D E A
Tomorrow seems so far away for me to know
F#m E D E/G# A
If you and I will always be in love forevermore
D A E pause
Just leave me with the memories
D-F#m D-F#m
All alone, all alone
D F#m
Today I read your letters and waited for your call
D F#m
I wondered if you think of me at all
D
And then I turn the radio on
A E/G# F#m
And heard our fav'rite song
D E
Then I knew you'll soon be coming home
(Repeat Chorus except last line)
F#m-D-F#m-E
All alone
(Repeat Chorus)
D F#m D
Today I heard our fav'rite song on the radio
F#m
All alone
Coda: D-F#m-; (Repeat to fade)
