Flowers,  presents,    but most of all,   a wedding ring

  G/                               C/                   G/                                C/                    
He saw a sign for a stock car race    A thousand dollar prize it read
             G/                     C/                      D/                   D7 /                  
He couldn't get Laura on the phone    So to her mother,  Tommy said

He drove his car to the racing grounds     He was the youngest driver there
G/                                 C/                            D/                                              D7  / 
The crowed roared as they started the race      Around the track they drove at a deadly pace
G/                                             C/                 G/                                          C        /             
No one knows what happened that day     Or how his car overturned in flames
       G/                            C/                                     D/                           D7 /
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck    With his dying breath, they heard him say

   G/                    G/            G/                   D7      /      
Tell Laura I love her    Tell Laura I need her
D7/                    G/                       D /              D7/               G/        
Tell Laura not to cry      My love for her       will never die

G/                                       C/                    G/                                        C/                        
Now in the chapel where Laura prays       For her poor Tommy, who passed away
                      G/                         C/                     D/                                         D7 /                       
It was just for Laura he lived and died    Alone in the chapel  she can hear him cry
