Strum
D-DU-UDU
He  gave to you a  golden ring;
 It made  you happy, it  made you sing.
And  I played for you on my guitar;
 It didn't  last long, we  didn't go far.
And  though the times  have changed,
We're  rearranged.
 Will the ties  that bind  remain  the same?
You  came around after  a while;
Everyone said  that I  made you smile.
It  all went well, and suddenly then
 You heard  that he  would marry again.
Well  I know that I have been  here before;
 I've trod  on your wings,  I've opened  the door.
If  I gave to you a golden ring
Would  I make you happy, would  I make you sing?
 x2
 (End with the intro doing )  x4.
