As recorded by Merle Haggard & Bonnie Owens (From the 1966 Album JUST BETWEEN THE TWO OF US) [Intro] N.C. We stopped living when our love died

    E             A
And I wanta live again

[Verse 1]

A
Our love grew cold a long time ago

                     E7
We both know love is gone

E7
Yet we stay together

                     A
We just keep hanging on

A
But it's wrong to live together

                             D
When our love has reached an end

                       A
We stopped living when our love died

    E7            A
And I wanta live again

[Chorus]

N.C.       A
I wanna be kissed like I used to be

E7
Thrilled like I used to be

E7
Loved like I used to be

              A
I wanta live again

[Pedal Steel Solo] N.C. A E7 A E7 A [Verse 2]

A
Each time we kiss, we search for love

                      E7
That used to fill our hearts

E7
But it's all wrong, the thrill is gone

                    A
We're just too far apart

A
We live a life of loneliness

                    D
Each day that we pretend

                       A
We stopped living when our love died

    E7            A
And I wanta live again

[Chorus]

N.C.       A
I wanna be kissed like I used to be

E7
Thrilled like I used to be

E7
Loved like I used to be

              A
I wanta live again
