G5                        C5                         G5 
In my troubled sleep my hands reach out to touch you 
                                            D5                    G5 
But you're no longer there to greet my hungry hands 
                                C5                   G5 
Then I wake up and I cry out in the darkness 
                                                D5                      G5 
And wonder how much more of this my heart can stand 
G5                    C5                   D5 
    A man can stand so much hurting 
                  G5 
I've stood a lot that's for certain 
             C5                                                 D5 
But without your love I'm bound to lose my mind 
                    G5 
I've cried so much I hurt all over 
                    C5 
And breakin forty's gettin closer 
                G5               D5                    G5 
There's a limit and I've almost reached mine 
 
Once I had my pride and called myself a strong man 
 
But my strength and pride walked out the door with you 
 
Now this awful aching hurt keeps tearing at me 
 
It's killing me to think of you with someone new
