INTRO: C  F  (4x)

C
Trying hard to keep it in

To lose myself in other things
        F
But you know
                        G
Those things just won’t do


C
All the things I do with time

To keep those thoughts from creeping
      F
In my mind
                   G
But they always get through


CHORUS:
C
Mind sore from thought

Eyes sore from stare
F
Heart sore from want
    G                 F  C
You got me in despair
          G                 F  C
Babe, you got me in despair
    G                 C  F  C  F  C  F  C  F  
You got me in despair


C
Dealing with the thought of you

Is the hardest thing I’ve had to do
      F
But I will
                G
What else can I do?


C
Losing track of everything

Is the price I pay for falling
   F
So hard
    G
For you


CHORUS:
C
Mind sore from thought

Eyes sore from stare
F
Heart sore from want
    G                 F  C
You got me in despair
          G                 F  C
Babe, you got me in despair
    G                 C  F  C  F  C  F  C  F  
You got me in despair


C
What’s the use in fighting it?

You took my heart on our first kiss
F           G
Consumed by you


CHORUS:
C
Mind sore from thought

Eyes sore from stare
F
Heart sore from want
          G                 F  C
Babe, you got me in despair
    G                 F  C
You got me in despair
    G                 F  C
You got me in despair
    G                 F  C
You got me in despair
    G                   C  F  C  F  C  F  C  F    
You got me in despair
