As recorded by Evan Honer (2025 release) [Intro] D Em [Verse 1]
D
How many hours can I go on without her

          Em                                                 D
Cause I'm 5 in now and it seems somehow that I'm supposed to stand

                                                Em
How many miles to drive away her smile I'm only 50 in

Em
And it's creeping in

             D
It's hard to breathe

             Em7
It's hard to breathe
[Chorus]
D
How long were you planning on doing this?

                                        Em7
How hard would it be for you to clue me in?

Em7
From the start you should told me

Em7
Cause I'd be better off lonely

D
When the hell did I ever not treat you right?

                                   Em7
Long strung out days and sleepless nights

Em7
From the start you should've told me

                                  D
Cause damn it I'm better off lonely

            Em7
I'm better off lonely
[Verse 2]
D
I don't have the answers

                                    Em7
And I'm still wondering if you ever did and if you ever miss

D                                                           Em7
When we had nothing, just lying next to where that oak tree sits

Em7
Is it supposed to hurt like this

             D
It's hard to breathe

             Em7 G
It's hard to breathe
[Chorus]
D
How long were you planning on doing this?

                                        Em7
How hard would it be for you to clue me in?

Em7
From the start you should told me

Em7
Cause I'd be better off lonely

D
When the hell did I ever not treat you right?

                                   Em7
Long strung out days and sleepless nights

Em7
From the start you should've told me

                                  D
Cause damn it I'm better off lonely

            Em7
I'm better off lonely
