Jenny left her husband many years ago
F C G
She got lost in menopause and found herself a beau
Bb Am
She lived to regret it. She lived to curse the day
Am G C F
She went back but he’d moved on
C G C
Poor Jenny was too late

                Am                       Em

He moved on. He’d moved on
F C
When the road turned into wilderness
G
And all sense in life was gone
Am
He moved on…

He’d stood there in the court house
And spoke with trembling heart
The judge said, “Repeat with me,
Until death do us part.
No matters what comes up on us,
Forever I’ll be true.”
These were the words he pledged to her
Back when the words were new

But, he moved on. He’d moved on
When the road turned into wilderness
And all sense in life was gone
He moved on…

Well-meaning friends told him he would

recover
Bb G
He must move on, a new life to discover

Jenny stands there in the grave yard
Beside his resting stone
Regrets and sad confessions leave her no less alone
Her tears, inconsequential, as in the surf he swam
Lost, now, in the ocean. All, water o’re the dam

He moved on. He’d moved on
When the road turned into wilderness
And all sense in life was gone
He moved on…
