Dm F G C
Too good to be forgotten, too good to be forgotten
[Verse]
C F
Benny was a boy I met while walking home one day
G C
Made me forget my marbles, said he had another game to play
C F
One thing led to another, Now what more can I say
G C
Just one of the reasons why I got him by my side today.
[Chorus]
C F
He was too good to be forgotten, what more I can say
G C
Too good to be forgotten, no I'll never let him get away
Dm Dm7 C Dm Dm7 C
One in a million people, Shout it from the highest steeple
C Em Dm Em Am Bm F G C F G C
He's just one of the few, Got my mind, got my life wrapped up in love
[Verse]
C F
Well, his hair was shiny, long & black, It smelled so sweet & bright
G C
I thought of him and dreamed of him oh, night after night
C F
I love the ground he walks on, The very air he breathes
G C
I ain't never gonna leave him 'cause I am as happy as I can be
[Chorus]

He was too good to be forgotten, what more I can say

Too good to be forgotten, no I'll never let him get away
