George Jones - Tender Years Chords

CAPO: 1st FRET/KEY: C#/PLAY: C
(C) You keep saying you love him
I be-(G) lieve that it's (C) true
And it just doesn't matter
How (G) much I love (C) you
But in time you'll under-(C7) stand, dear
When (F) you shed a (C) tear
Then you'll know you were living
In (G) your TENDER (C) YEARS.

In your eyes there's a lovelight
That shines for him
But how long will it stay there
Will that lovelight grow dim
You can just see the happiness
You can't see the tears
Its true 'cause you're living
In your TENDER YEARS.

So if I can't be your first love
I'll wait and be your last
I'll be somewhere in your future
To help you forget the past
And you'll know that I love you
With a love that's sincere
'Cause I'll wait till you're thru living
In your TENDER YEARS.

TAG:
(C) Yes, you'll know that I (C7) love you
With a (F) love that's sin-(C) cere
Yes, I'll wait till you're thru living
In (G) your TENDER (C) YEARS.
