G                D   
I don't know if I can explain it  
               G                           D 
'Cause there's really nothin' different at all  
    G                    D 
The sun still burns, the earth still turns  
        Bm                       G   
And the winter still follows the fall  
  G                        D 
I knew that it wouldn't be easy  
       D7                     G  
For my heart to find somebody new  
    Bm                       Bm/A               G 
But I never thought it would still be broken in two 
      A           D 
These years after you  
 
 
They tell me time is a natural healer  
It kinda smooths the pain away  
But this hurt within hasn't yet given in  
And it's been over 2000 days  
I still remember the taste of your kisses  
And your eyes that were beautifully blue  
And I can still hear the sound of your voice  
When you said we were through  
These years after you  
 
D                         G 
(Years after, years after you)  
          A 
I'm still cryin'  
D                         G  
(Tears after, years after you)  
          A                 G  
I'm still tryin' to make it through  
      A           D 
These years after you   
 
 
There've been mornin's when I couldn't wake up  
There's been evenin's when I couldn't sleep  
My life will be fine for months at a time  
Then I'll break down & cry for a week  
'Cause when I told you I'd love you forever  
I know you didn't think it was true  
But forever is nothin'  
Compared to some nights I've been through  
In these years after you  
 
Chorus & fade
