[Verse]
D
Some folks said I was getting' well
A D
But through the tears I couldn't tell
G
I could not see past yester day
D A D
'Cause your memory stood there in my way
D
A lonely mind plays funny tricks
A D
Works on things that can't be fixed
G
It's bound to dwell on what you miss
D A D
Like a midnight touch or a morning kiss
Chorus:
D A D
It's still hard to face a day if you ain't in it
A
But I had to draw the line,
G A
A million tears is a man's limit
D
No, I don't expect your memory
D7 G
To let me ever for get it
D A
But once in a while I live through a minute
D
And you ain't in it
D
It didn't take a clock to alarm me
A D
I was always up, I'd never sleep
G
Scared to death I'd dream of you
D
That's more'n I wanted to
A D
Put my old heart through
D
A big dark cloud followed me around
A D
Didn't dare look up or I'd have drowned
G
Thought you took that sun with you
D
But to day my curtain
A D
Let a little peep slip through
Chorus:
D A D
It's still hard to face a day if you ain't in it
A
But I had to draw the line,
G A
A million tears is a man's limit
D
No, I don't expect your memory
D7 G
To let me ever for get it
D A
But once in a while I live through a minute
D
And you ain't in it
D
No, I don't expect your memory
D7 G
To let me ever for get it
D A
But once in a while I live through a minute
D
And you ain't in it
A D
Nah, You ain't in it...
