[Ab] [Db] [Gm] [Ab] [Eb]
[Ab]
I try to sleep to kill the pain [Db] When I wake it's still the same
[Ab] Cause I'm living in this world you [Eb] left behind me
Just [Ab] like a broken piece of glass [Db] You have swept me aside to pass
[Ab] Leaving shattered dreams [Eb] with a lonely [Ab] heart and mind
Well here [Db] I go again It's just [Ab] like yesterday
The pain [Bb] is deep within my [Eb] heart to stay
I'm just [Ab] a fool to sit and cry [Db] Wasting years before I die
[Ab] In this lonely world, [Eb] this world you [Ab] left behind
[Db] Well [Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Ab]
[Ebm] here [Db] I go again It's just [Ab] like yesterday
The pain [Bb] is deep within my heart [Eb] to stay
I'm [Ab] just a fool to sit and cry [Db] Wasting years before I die
In [Ab] this lonely world, [Eb] this world you left [Ab] behind
