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. 

 
   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.

     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.

It keeps right on a-hurtin, every minute of the day.

Every hour you're away, I feel so lone-ly.

Oh, I can't help it, I don't think I can go on.

And, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you've gone.
