I have always intended to learn it. Does anybody have the chords and lyrics? {End Quote} Dan, I don't think you are still around Mudcat, but I will provide the lyrics (which I have not found during any Internet search) to what is also my favorite Hank Snow song. The lyrics transcription is from the 45 rpm record, RCA 9523, I own and the link listed below. The Late and Great Love (of My Heart) Hank Snow 1968 There she goes there she goes With her blue eyes all aglow The late and great love of my heart And though she's gone from me She will always, always be The mate that fate meant for my heart Bridge: Foolish sentimental fool am I I should find a new love, but I've said goodbye To the thought of all love, in loving memory of The late and great love of my heart Instrumental break There she goes there she goes In her pretty wedding clothes The late and great love of my heart She loves him more than me But she'll always, always be The real ideal love of my heart Foolish sentimental fool am I I should find a new love, but I've said goodbye To the thought of all love, in loving memory of The late and great love of my heart The late and great love of my heart This song debuted on 6/8/68, charted for 13 weeks, and reached a peak chart position of 20 (from the Billboard book: Joel Whitburn's Top Country Singles 1944-1993).
