I[D] have fallin for another she can make her own way[G] home
And even if she asked me now I'd let her go a[D]lone
I useta see her up the chapel as she went to Sunday[G] mass
When she'd go up to receive I'd knell down ther and watch her[D] pass
The glory of her[A] ass
I[D] useta love her I useta love her[G] once
A long long time ago
I[D] useta love her I used love her[G] once
A long long time ago
It's[C] gone , all my loving is[G] gone
It's gone all my loving is gone
Do you remember her colecting for concern on Christmas eve
She was on a 48 hour fast just water and black tea
And I walked right up and made an ostentatious contribution
And I winked at her to tell her I'd seduce her in the future
When she's feelin looser
[Chorus]
So now you know the truth of it she's no longer my obsession
And the thoughts and dreams I had of her would take 6 months in confession
See I met this young one Thursday night and she's into free expression
And her mission is to rid the world of sinful repression
hen we had a session
It's gone long,long gone
I have fallin' for another she can make her own way home
And even if she asked me now I'd let her go a[D]lone
I useta see her up the chapel as she went to Sunday[G] mass
When she'd go up to receive I'd knell down ther and watch her[D] pass
The glory of her[A] ass
I[D] useta love her I useta love her[G] once
A long long time ago
I[D] useta love her I used love her[G] once
A long long time ago
It's[C] gone , all my loving is[G] gone
It's gone all my loving is gone
Do you remember her colecting for concern on Christmas eve
She was on a 48 hour fast just water and black tea
And I walked right up and made an ostentatious contribution
And I winked at her to tell her I'd seduce her in the future
When she's feelin looser
[Chorus]
So now you know the truth of it she's no longer my obsession
And the thoughts and dreams I had of her would take 6 months in confession
See I met this young one Thursday night and she's into free expression
And her mission is to rid the world of sinful repression
hen we had a session
It's gone long,long gone
I have fallin' for another she can make her own way home
