"WHAT AM I DOING THERE"
George Jones, _Walls Can Fall_

E
I no longer know
                A
What's real any more
                  E
In the back of my mind
                  B
I have opened the door
                  E
That leads to the past
                     A
And the love we once shared
                E      B
I keep asking myself
                E
What am I doing there

chorus (same chords as verse):
What am I doing there
Holding you tight
Taking down your hair
Lying close by your side
Making believe
That you still care
My new life is here
What am I doing there

I don't get much rest
With this secret I keep
And I'm afraid that some night
Oh, I'll talk in my sleep
How could I explain
To the one lying there
She's loving me now
What am I doing there

(repeat chorus)

My new life is here
What am I doing there

What Am I Doing There

E                                A
I no longer know what's real anymore
                   E                      B7
In the back of my mind I have opened the door
                   E                        A
That leads to the past & the love we once shared
               E     B7                E
I keep asking myself what am I doing there

CHO...                                   A
      What am I doing there holding you tight
                        E                        B7
      Taking down your hair lying close by your side
                E                    A
      Making believe that you still care
                      E   B7                E
      My new life is here what am I doing there


                                          A
I don't get much rest with the secrets I keep
                          E                        A
And I'm afraid that some night oh I'll talk in my sleep
                E                     E
How could I explain to the one lying here
                 E  B7                E
She's loving me now what am I doing there

CHO...

                    B7                E
My new life is here what am I doing there
