Im Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes

C                                  F
Would be better for us both had we never
        G7                          C
In this wide wicked world have ever met
C                                   F
For the pain and the pleasures he's brought me
     G7                 C
I am sure I will never forget

(chorus)
C                              F
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
       G7                   C
Who is sailing far over the sea
                               F
And I'm thinking tonight of him only
      G7                           C
And I wonder does he ever think of me


(2nd verse)
Oh, you told me once, dear, that you loved me
And you swore that we never would part
But a link in the chain has been broken
Leaving me with a sad broken heart

(repeat chorus)


Additional verse by original Carter Family version:

(3rd verse)
When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me
Will you come there and shed just a tear
And say to the strangers around you
The poor heart you have broken lies here
