Short And Sweet Chords

[Verse 1]
A                      E7
A soft summer rain she was when she came
    D                             A
And settled my old dusty worn-out soul
                               D
While I watched in a dream and dreamed as I watched
    E7                              A
The sweetest and the shortest story told
 
[Chorus]
          D                E7                D      A
Short and sweet were those good old songs of yesterday
          D                    E7              D                A
Short and sweet, Lord, was the warm and tender love she gave to me
          D            E7           A
Short and sweet, Lord, so short and sweet
 
[Verse 2]
A                      E7
Walking down the same old roads good Lord knows I toted loads
    D                             A
But that was back before she came along
                               D
Now I'm lost and alone singing some old worn out song
          E7                              A
Where the darkness stretches time ten to one
 
[Chorus]
          D                E7                D      A
Short and sweet were those good old songs of yesterday
          D                    E7              D                A
Short and sweet, Lord, was the warm and tender love she gave to me
          D            E7           A
Short and sweet, Lord, so short and sweet
