Tending The Wrong Grave For 23 Years

this is only the part of the song with lyrics A D a mistake has been made it’s a fact they can’t hide Bm E though i’m partly to blame it can not be denied A D Bm there ain’t no use defending , it seems i’ve been tending D E A E the wrong grave for twenty three years . A D a letter dropped on to my doormat one day Bm E and i thought i’ll ignore that - it might go away A D Bm and i took up my shears to the place where for years D E A E7 i presumed my sweet darling had lain . A D curse those in charge of plots , curse these forget - me - nots Bm E E7 i’ve been sharing my innermost thoughts with an edward mccrae A D i’m inconsolable and at times uncontrollable Bm E E7 ah but she wouldn’t know ’cos she’s two hundred metres away . A D Bm i’m numb from the sting that i’ve been tending D E A E the wrong grave for twenty three years , A D Bm oh i walked up in autumn , i ran up in spring D E A E to the wrong grave for twenty three years , A D Bm oh ding a ling a ling a ling , now ain’t that a thing D E A E the wrong grave for twenty three years , D E A E the wrong grave for twenty three years D E D E the wrong grave for twenty three years .
