[Verse 1]
[C]For[F] ye[C]ars now I've been living
with an [F]empty [Am]aching [F]heart,
tortured by a [G]dream that could not [C]be.
[G]But whe[C]n I first saw you
[G]I knew r[F]ight there from the start
That you were the [G]only one [C]for me
[G]An d the love I [C]gave you,
[F]was[G] worth muc[F]h mor[Am]e than gol[F]d.
And I prayed that [G]someday
you would [C]care,[G]
but [C]at last I [G]find [C]that [G]I've
been [F]cast out in the cold
to face a world that [G]is so bleak and [C]bad.
[G]Dee[F]p down in [C]my heart
I guess [F]I knew that you would l[Am]eave
[F]And I swore that [G]I would never c[C]ry
[G]But [C]the way it's happened, dear,
[F]I just can't help but g[Am]rieve,[F]
for at least you [G]could have
said good [C]-bye.[G]
After [C]all, you must have known
my [F]love was just for you,
for that's one thing I
[G]know I could [C]not hide.
[G]An d God [C]above knows how
I [G]prayed you'd [F]learn to love me, too,
but [G]it [F]seems you nev[G]er even [C]tried.
[G]I wis[C]h you luck and happiness
[G]wherever [F]you may [Am]go.
[F]My heart will be right [G]with you night and [C]day
[G]And whe[C]n you feel lonely,
[G]think of the [F]one that loved you [Am]so
[F]For that love is [G]with you all the [C]way
[G]Dee[Am]p dow[C]n in my heart
I guess [G]I k[F]new that you would leave
And [G]I s[F]wore that I[G] would never cr[C]y
[G]But [C]the way it's happened, dear,
I [F]just can't help but grieve,
[G]or at least you could have said goodbye.
[C]
