I can't believe, after all of these years, I still miss you

Why won't your memories leave me the same way you do

F                                             C         C    
Taking all of my pride honey, one thing's for certain

               C7                                    F     (F)  F

F                                                     C         C
She was the light of my life, she could brighten, the darkness

C7                                   C           F       F  F7   
If not for her, we'd have nothing to show for at all

F                                                   C       C
You took what's left of what once was my reason for livin'

C                                    C7         F       F  F7
Living without her is no reason, for living, at all

Bb                                              F        F  F7
Some days she'll ask you to answer a lot of old questions

C                       C7                      F        F  F7
What will you tell her about me if she wants to know

Bb                                           F        F  F7
She was too young to remember the reason you left me

G                     G7                         C       C7
You found a reason to tell her, I'd sure like to know

C                                     C7             F       F  F7
Seeing her now could not make up, for all she's been through

F                                                   C        C7
Watching two people she once called her mother, and father

C                             C7                          F       F  F7
Acting like strangers, that's something, I just could not do
[Chorus] 3:09
F                                                  C          C

C7             C7/G                               F    (F)  F
Why won't your memories leave me the same way you do

F                                             C         C    
Taking all of my pride honey, one thing's for certain

C                      C7/G                          F     (F)  F
