G
I've been away for just a year
                         D7
Have you forgotten me my dear
               G      C       G
The judge said I must pay the cost
        D7                G
I never knew how much I'd lost


[CHORUS]

           C           G
Until they sent me far away
                          D7
Where each minute seems a day
          G       C       G
But maybe someday I'll be free
            D7                G
Will you be waiting there for me


[VERSE 2]


I'm in this cell because of you
                             D7
The crime I did you drove me to
           G          C         G
My jealous heart just could not stand
           D7           G
To see you with another man


[CHORUS]

           C           G
Until they sent me far away
                          D7
Where each minute seems a day
          G       C       G
But maybe someday I'll be free
            D7                G
Will you be waiting there for me


[VERSE 3]

I hope someday that you will learn
                         D7
And brokenhearted you'll return
           G       C            G
But listen darling please don't wait
          D7               G
For maybe then will be too late
