Tell Laura I Love Her by Ray Peterson G C 1. Laura and Tommy were lovers, G C he wanted to give her everything, Em Am D D7 flowers, presents, and most of all a wedding-ring. G C 2. He saw a sign for a stock-car race, G C a thousand dollar prize it read. Em Am He couldn` t get Laura on the phone, D D7 so to her mother Tommy said. G Am Tell Laura, I love her, tell Laura, I need her, G Am tell Laura, I may be late, I`ve got something to do, D G that cannot wait. G C 3. He drove his car to the racing ground, G C he was the youngest driver there. Em Am The crowd roared as they started the race, D D7 round the track they drove at a deadly pace. G C 4. No-one knows what happened that day, G C how his car overturned in flames. Em Am But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck, D D7 with his dying breath they heard him say. G Am Tell Laura, I love her, tell Laura, I need her, G Am D G tell Laura not to cry, my love for her will never die. G C 5. Now in the chapel Laura prays, G C for her Tommy who passed away, Em Am it was just for Laura he lived and died, D D7 alone in the chapel she can hear him cry. + Chorus www.TAB6.com
