[Verse 1]
               G                       Em
Old habits die hard, some wounds never heal;
               C                             D
we got what we came for, this is part of the deal.
           G                     Em
I can't forget you, I can't even try,
             C          D          G
sometimes it seems like   somebody died.

[Chorus}
                 G                     Em
Old soldiers die hard, old hearts beat slow;
               C     D                 G
old friends go easy,   old lovers just go.

[Verse 2]
                 G                           Em
Some fools never learn, ain't that what they say,
               C                   D
I turned for a moment, you turned away.
             G                 Em
You had your reasons, God only knows,
                    C     D          G
if it bothered you, baby,   it never showed.

[Chorus}
                 G                     Em
Old soldiers die hard, old hearts beat slow,
               C     D                 G
old friends go easy,   old lovers just go.
                 G                    Em
Old soldiers die hard, old heads hang low,
               C     D                 G
old friends go easy,   old lovers just go.

[Interlude]
G          Em          C    D      G

[Bridge]
       Em             C             G       G
I keep telling myself   that it's alright,
      Em        C          D       D
but I know that later on tonight ...

[End-Chorus}
                 G                     Em
Old soldiers cry hard, old hearts beat slow,
               C     D                 G
old friends go easy,   old lovers just go.
                 G                    Em
Old soldiers die hard, old heads hang low,
               C     D                 G
old friends go easy,   old lovers just go.
