INTRO:
E A  D A  E

#1.
  A                        A7
I cry myself to sleep each night..
D
wishing I could hold you tight..
     A                                E
life seems so empty since you went a..way.
    A                         A7
The pillow where you lay your head..
    D
now holds my lonely tears instead..
       E                                     A   D A  E
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

CHORUS:
   E                               D
It keeps right on a-hurtin', every minute of the day.
      E                          D        A
Every hour you're away I feel so lone..lonely.
                             A7             D
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on..
       E                                     A   D A  E
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

#2.
     A                      A7
They say a man should never cry..
    D
but when I see you passin' by..
   A                                     E
my heart breaks down and cries a million tears.
     A                             A7
Now, you broke my heart and set me free..
    D
but you forgot your memory..
       E                                     A   D A  E
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

OUTRO:
   E                               D
It keeps right on a-hurtin', every minute of the day.
      E                          D        A
Every hour you're away I feel so lone..lonely.
                             A7             D
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on..
       E                                     A   D A  E A
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.
