Capo 1
E B
I can’t believe after all of these years I still miss you
B E
Why won’t your memory leave me the same way you did
E B
Taking all but my pride, honey, one thing’s for certain
B E
Missing you’s nothing compared now to missing the kid
E B
She was the light of my life, she could brighten the darkness
B E
If not for her we’d have nothing to show for it all
E B
You took what’s left of what once was my reason for livin’
B E
Livin without her’s no reason for livin at all
Bridge:
A E
Someday she’ll ask you to answer a lot of old questions
B E
What will you tell her about me if she wants to know
A E
She was too young to remember the reason you left me
F# B
If you’ve found a reason to tell her, I’d sure like to know
I tell myself that it’s best if I don’t try to see her
Seeing her now could not make up for all she’s been through
Watching two people she once called her mother and father
Acting like strangers, that’s something I just could not do
I can’t believe after all of these years I still miss you
Why won’t your memory leave me the same way you did
Taking all but my pride, honey, one thing’s for certain
Missing you’s nothing compared now to missing the kid
Mmmmmmmmmmm
