INTRO
Ab Eb x4
VERSE 1
Cm
It was January, 1963
Gm
When Johnny came home with a gift for me
Cm
He said I bought it for you because I love you
Gm
And I bought it for you because it's your birthday, too
Cm
He was so very nice, he was so very kind
Gm Cm
To think of me at this point in time
Gm
I used to think of him, he used think of me
PRE-CHORUS
Cm
He told me to close my eyes
Gm
My gift would be a great surprise
Cm
I saw tears were in his eyes
G
He never meant to hurt me, oh, God
CHORUS
Cm Fm
Johnny, don't point that gun at me
Gm
There's so many ways our lives have changed
Cm Ab
But please, I beg, don't do this to me
Cm Fm
Johnny, don't point that gun at me
Gm
Can I save my life at any price?
Cm Ab
For God's sake won't you listen to me?

VERSE 2
Cm
And though he was ashamed that he had took a life
Gm
Johnny came home with another wife
Cm
And he often remembered how it used to be
Gm
Before that special occasion, 1963
Cm
There was too many ways that you could kill someone
Gm Cm
Like in a love affair, when the love is gone
Gm
He used to think of her, she used to think of me
PRE-CHORUS
Cm
He told me to close my eyes
Gm

I will always feel for you...
