Sad Stories

Verse:

[He said] I gave up drinking years ago
Never thought I’d have the urge again
Oh but how was I to know
I’d be here without my one true friend
I met her when she was just a girl [what a girl]
And I was a foolish, foolish boy
Forty years she stuck right by my side
Through all the sadness and the joy

Chorus:
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed she would be mine
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed for a minute that she’d be mine
Verse:
Everybody who gets to be as old as me [he said]
Has a sad story, that’s guaranteed
Everybody’s got their own little tragedy
I’m just a man I’m not unique [not all all]

Bridge:
Now son I don’t claim our life was perfect
There were bitter times mixed with the good
But somehow our love pulled us through
Wouldn’t change a minute if I could

Chorus:
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed she would be mine
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed for a minute that she’d be mine

Verse:
I gave up drinking years ago
Never thought I’d have the urge again
Oh but how was I to know
I’d be here without my one true friend

Chorus:
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed she would be mine
Always thought I’d be her sad story
Never dreamed for a minute that she’d be mine
Never dreamed for a minute
Never dreamed for a minute
Never dreamed for a minute that she’d be mine
