Introduction: C
C
The good times I thought that we were havin'
C C7
must not have been as good as good as I recall.
F C A7
But why am I the only one who's hurtin'
D7 G G7
and feelin' like the whole thing's all my fault?
C
Re-member how I always said I loved you
C C7
and wanted to be with you all the time?
F F#º7 C A7
And I never changed the way I felt a-bout you
D7 G C C7
so tell me how could all the fault be mine?
F C
I've been hurtin' way too long.
D G
Some nights I even sit and cry un-til the break of dawn.
F# F C B BbA
And now I know just what I got to do,
D7 G C
to-night I'm walkin' out on the blues.

C
I tried ev'ry way I know to please you.
C C7
Ev'ry day I work my fingers to the bone,
F C A7
to buy you ev'ry-thing you ever wanted
D7 G G7
and now I'm spending all my nights a-lone.
C
So now I'm gonna try to please myself, dear,
C7
and do some things I've always wanted to
F F#º7 C A7
I'm going out to-night and have some fun for a change,
D7 G C C7
and I won't be here thinkin' of you.

I've been hurtin' way too long.

Some nights I even sit and cry un-til the break of dawn.
