When I Loved Her by   Kris Kristofferson 

C                                                              F                    C 
Well, she didn't look as pretty as some others I have known, 
                                                                F                    G7 
And she wasn't good at conversation when we were alone. 
               F                   G7                  C                  Am 
But she had a way of making me believe that I belonged. 
            F            G7                             C 
And it felt like coming home when I found her. 

Chorus: 
C7               F                         G7               C                    Am 
Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun 
               F                          G7                      C 
And she made what I was doing seem worthwhile. 
C7         F                      G7              C                        Am 
It's the closest thing to living that I guess I've ever known. 
           F                           G7                 C 
And it made me want to smile when I loved her. 

C                                                                          F                       C 
'Cause she seemed to be so proud of me, just walking, holding hands, 
                                                                    F                G7 
And she didn't think that money was the measure of a man. 
               F                                   G7      C                  Am 
And we seemed to fit together when I held her in my arms. 
            F                       G7                C 
And it left me feeling warm when I loved her. 

Chorus: 
C                                                                  F                      C 
I know some of us were born to cast our fortunes to the wind, 
                                                                   F                       G7 
And I guess I'm bound to travel down a road that never ends. 
          F                       G7                   C                Am 
But I know I'll never look upon the likes of her again. 
               F                  G7                C 
And I'll never understand why I lost her. 

Chorus:
