[Verse 1]
       C              F               C                 F
On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time

       C               G                 C
I felt free and I felt lonely and I felt scared

    C          F             Am                 F
And I began to talk to myself almost immediately

          C       G         F           G          C
Not being used to being the only person there, mhmmm                               
[Verse 2]
    C                 F               C                       F
The first time I made coffee for just myself, I made too much of it

               C                  G              F                C
But I drank it all just cause you hate it when I let things go to waste

      C                    F                   Am              F
And I wandered through the house like a little boy lost in the mall

       C                  G               F               G
And an astronaut could've seen the hunger in my eyes from space
[Chorus] And I sang
C             G             F             C
Oh, What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?

C         G          C
What do I do without you?
[Verse 3]
       C              F               C                 F
On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time

      C                  G      F                    C
I was cold so I put on a sweater and I turned up the heat

        C              F              Am              F
And the walls began to close in and I felt so sad and frightened

              C            G               F        C
I practically ran from the living room out into the street

        C             F                C              F
And the wind began to blow and all the trees began to bend

        C                 G                  C
And the world in its cold way started coming alive

      C                  F           Am               F
And I stood there like a business man waiting for the train

          C             G         C
And I got ready for the future to arrive
[Chorus] And I sang
C             G             F             C
Oh, What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?

C         G          C
What do I do without you?
