INTRO: F Bb


#1.
Bb                                Eb
I cry myself to sleep each night, wishing I could 

hold you tight.
     Bb                            F
Life seems so empty since you went away.
    Bb                                 Eb
The pillow where you lay your head now holds my lonely 

tears instead.
       F                                     Bb
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you've gone.


CHORUS:
   F                              Eb
It keeps right on a-hurtin, every minute of the day.
      F                           Eb   Bb
Every hour you're away, I feel so lone-ly.
Bb                                          Eb
Oh, I can't help it, I don't think I can go on.
        F                                     Bb
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you've gone.

#2.
     Bb                              Eb
They say a man should never cry, but when I see you 
               Bb 
passing by, my heart breaks down and cries a million 
F
tears.
    Bb                                  Eb
You broke my heart and set me free, but you forgot your 

memory.
       F                                     Bb
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you've gone.



CHORUS:
   F                              Eb
It keeps right on a-hurtin, every minute of the day.
      F                           Eb   Bb
Every hour you're away, I feel so lone-ly.
Bb                                   Dm     Eb
Oh, I can't help it, I don't think I can go on.
        F                                     Bb
And, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you've gone.
