Carl And Pearl Butler - Fifteen years ago

I saw a ^Dman today who ^A7said he talked to ^Dyou Not too long ago, I ^Gthink a month or ^Dtwo As my mind raced back in ^Gtime I prayed Oh, ^DLord, don't let it ^Gshow He thinks ^DI forgot you ^A7fifteen years a^Dgo

Fifteen ^Dyears a^D7go and ^GI still feel the ^Dsame Why did he have to mention your ^A7name I'm as ^Dbroken up in^Gside as if it's ^Dbeen a week or ^Gso It takes a ^Dmighty strong ^Glove To keep a ^Dman thinkin' ^Gof a girl He ^Dhasn't seen since ^A7fifteen years a^Dgo

I've got a ^Dlovely wife who ^A7thinks the world of ^Dme I promised her my love through^Gout eterni^Dty And I've tried hard to make her ^Ghappy And so ^Dfar, she doesn't ^Gknow I can't ^Dshake this thing of ^A7fifteen years a^Dgo

Fifteen ^Dyears a^D7go and ^GI still feel the ^Dsame Why did he have to mention your ^A7name I'm as ^Dbroken up in^Gside as if it's ^Dbeen a week or ^Gso It takes a ^Dmighty long ^Gtime To get a r^Deal love off of your ^Gmind I know, I've ^Dtried since ^A7fifteen years a^Dgo
