Old habits die [G]hard, some wounds never [Em]heal;

old friends go [C]easy, [D] old lovers just [G]go.

Some fools never [G]learn, ain't that what they [Em]say,
I turned for a [C]moment, you turned [D]away.
You had your [G]reasons, God only [Em]knows,
if it bothered you, [C]baby, [D] it never [G]showed.

Old soldiers die [G]hard, old hearts beat [Em]slow,
