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
