Murray,this was not lsited as by Jim Reeves, so I went looking elsewhere. Here's what I found at Cowpie (which there is a link to on the Links page. Sorry if the chords didn't wind up in the right places:

  
************ FOR THE GOOD TIMES *************

written and performed by Kris Kristofferson.


Verse 1:
G7 C
Don't look so sad, I know it's over.
G7 C
But life goes on, and this whole world will keep on turning.
F G7 C
Let just be glad we had some time to spend together.
F Dm G7
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning.


Chorus:
C G7
Lay your head upon my pillow.
C
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine.
F Dm
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowin' soft against the window
G7 C
And make believe you love me one more time, for the good times.


Verse 2:
G7 C
I'll get along, you'll find another
G7 C
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me.
F G7 C
Don't say a word about tommorrow or forever
F Dm G7
There will be time enough for sadness when you leave me.


Chorus.
