(Capo on 3 fret)

Basically D - A - G


DI used to have a woman in my home
ALong long time ago
AAnd I still recall that gal
DThough she's been a long time gone
GShe might have stayed
                  DBut what I had to give
              G Was more like love
D         ANow all I have
     G                       DIs a used to be and ain't no more

I used to have music in my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall that song
Though it's been a long time gone
I try to sing it yet
But it comes out in soughs and moans
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more

                       AWell, there used to be pictures upon the wall
          G          G7           DAnd there used to be kids runnin' round in the hall
          AAnd there used to be more than just one chair
           G     G7                 D  Cause when I had friends they would visit me here

          G                              And there used to be a cross made of gold
D                          GHanging on the mirror that I since broke
D             A But now all I have
     G                       D      Is a used to be and ain't no more

They used to bring mail to my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall those letters
Though they've been a long time gone
But how can they bring the mail
When the numbers on the house are gone
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more

I used to have a bible in my home
A long long time ago
And I still recall that book
Though it's been a long time gone
And it's been so long since I called the lord
I'm afraid he won't respond
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
