Bb                            Eb
Laura and Tommy were lovers
Bb                             Eb
He wanted to give her everything
Gm                   Cm            F
Flowers, presents, and most of all, a wedding ring

Bb                              Eb
He saw a sign for a stock car race
Bb                              Eb
A thousand dollar prize it read
Gm                             Cm
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
F                                 F7
So to her mother, Tommy said

Bb
Tell Laura I love her
                Cm
Tell Laura I need her
                  Bb
Tell Laura I may be late
Cm                    F                 Bb
I've something to do, that cannot wait

Bb                           Eb
He drove his car to the racing grounds
Bb                             Eb
He was the youngest driver there
Gm                               Cm
The crowed roared as they started the race
F                                      F7 
Around the track they drove at a deadly pace

Bb                              Eb
No one knows what happened that day
Bb                            Eb
Or how his car overturned in flames
Gm                                       Cm
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
F                                       F7  
With his dying breath, they heard him say

Bb
Tell Laura I love her
Cm
Tell Laura I need her
Bb
Tell Laura not to cry
Cm              F              Bb
My love for her will never die

Bb                                  Eb
Now in the chapel where Laura prays
Bb                                  Eb
For her poor Tommy, who passed away
Gm                                  Cm
It was just for Laura he lived and died
F                                      F7 
Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry

Bb
Tell Laura I love her
Cm
Tell Laura I need her
Bb
Tell Laura not to cry
Cm              F              Bb
My love for her will never die

Bb
Tell Laura I love her
Bb
Tell Laura I love her
