This Was My Love

D                    A
 Soft as a rain drop, fresh as the sea
                     D
Warm as the sunshine  shinin' on me
G     A      D     G     A      D
 This was my love,  this was my love.

Light was her laughter, few were her tears
Gentle her beauty, tender her years
This was my love, this was my love.   D7
G             F#m   Em                D
 So young, so fair,  such soft golden hair
G             A      D
 Smile always on her face
G         F#m Em           D
No other love  can ever compare
   C         A        D

Julius and Ethel

E
Now that they are gone you know the truth it can be told
          D
They were sacrificed lambs in the market place sold
A                 E
Julius and Ethel, Julius and Ethel

Now that they are gone you know the truth it can come out
They were never proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt
Julius and Ethel, Julius and Ethel.

The people thought they were guilty at the time
Some even said there hadn't been any crime
Julius and Ethel, Julius and Ethel.

People look upon this couple with contempt and doubt
But they loved each other right up to the time they checked out
