The Prom:Del Shannon 
Album - Runaway With Del Shannon - 
released on BIG TOP and LONDON Records 
in 1961. 
(I got the lyrics off the original recording. 
 When he did it live he changed the lyrics a 
 bit in the BRIDGE. I always go with the original.) 

Intro: Ab Db 

#1. 
Db                              Bbm 
On my way to the senior prom, I saw a crowd  

all gathered round. 
  Gb                              Ab 
I stopped the car, got out to see just what 

it could be. 
Db                         Bbm 
There lying near the crowd was a girl dressed 

in a gown. 
  Gb                       Ab 
I walked up so I could see just who it could be. 

#2. 
Db                      Bbm 
Knelt down by her side..tears came into my eyes. 
Gb                            Ab 
Did there lie the one I love..the one I'd always love. 
Db                                     Bbm 
Then she said, take this ring of mine, you are my 

love divine. 
Gb                     Ab                        Db 
And as our lips met, I know, I can't forget..the way 
                    Bbm 
my heart cried..the way it hurt inside. 
Gb                      Ab                   Db 
She's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay. 
      Bbm         Db          Bbm    
(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.) 

Bridge:(Spoken:) 
Db                         Bbm 
There lies the one I love..the one I'll always love. 
Gb                                  Ab 
If I had picked her up on time, her precious love 

would still be mine. 
Db                                Bbm 
The love, the love she gave to me will always stay with me. 
Gb                                     Ab 
Til the day we meet, til the day you return to me. 

#3. 
Db                           Bbm 
Then my heart begins to cry, it hurts so deep inside. 
Gb                      Ab                   Db 
She's gone so far away..my lonely heart must pay. 

OUTRO: 
      Bbm         Db          Bbm    
(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.) 

      Bbm         Db          Bbm    
(She, she's gone..gone, she's gone.)(Fade.)
