C             C7  
I'm driving in my car alone 
    F 
You called me on the telephone 
C                      A7               D      G        
How many times will it take till I'm convinced 
            C                    C7  
That you're using me, I'm just a used-to-be 
       F 
It's a lie, I know it's a lie 
      C                G          C 
But I just can't go on dying like this 
 
      F 
Can I see you tonight, 
                            C F 
Baby I'll act just like you want me to 
   D 
Or is that just exactly  
         G 
what I'm not supposed to do? 
          C 
I'll just stop in here,  
       C7  
have a glass of beer 
    F  
I'm just a fool I guess 
      C                G          F 
But I just can't go on dying like this  
 
Solo 
 
Here I am again, it's 4 a.m.  
I think I'll play that song again 
The one called \"I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry\" 
And I'll wonder where you are tonight 
I don't know, I just don't know 
But I just can't go on dying like this 
 
Chorus 
 
Lord knows I just can't go on dying like this
