Mickey Newbury – Lovers chords

Lovers 

Intro: Em  A  Em  A  D  G  D  G

D              D/C#   D/C                 D/B Once they were lovers but now they're not friends 
Am                   GShe's found another, he says it's the end 
Gm                              DTo think they once tore down a wall for a door 
A7                      DNow they don't speak anymore 

So he walks the streets the few night he can stand 
Drinkin' her memory away when he can 
Friend's once would reach out  to them from the shore 
But now they don't cry anymore 

Em          A7         DHow does it all come to happen 
Em         A7            DThat's not what lovin' is for 
       Em           A7         DAnd if I thought it was I would leave here in the mornin' 
Em                      DI'd sooner sleep on the floor 

Oh, when will learn really what loving is 
It's not what you get in return but what you give 
To think they once tore down a wall for a door 
Now they don't speak anymore..
