    A Lesson In Romantics

D                          A           Bm
Katie don't cry I know you're trying your hardest
               A              D
And the hardest part is letting go

Of the nights we shared
A         Bm                         A
Ocala is calling and you know it's haunting
    G                 A
but compared to your eyes
         Bm              D
nothing shines quite as bright
            G             A
And when we looked to the sky
        Bm          D
It?s not mine but I want it. So...

[Chorus]
D
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
A
(I know he's there and)
Bm                              A
You?re probably hanging out and making eyes

(While across the room he stares)
G                             A
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
 * A/A#             Bm              A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or 
A/A#               Bm         A
Her to second-guess but I guess)
       G              D
That I can live without you but
 G              A            D
(Without I'll be miserable at best)


 D
You?re all that I hoped I'd find
              Bm
In every single way
                       A
And everything I would give
                          D
Is everything you couldn't take
                        A
Cause nothing feels like home
                        Bm
You?re a thousand miles away
                        A
And the hardest part of living
                          G
Is just taking breaths to stay
                         A
Cause I know I'm good for something
        A/A#             Bm
I just haven't found it yet
      A
And I need it so...

[Chorus]
D
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
A
(I know he's there and)
Bm                              A
You?re probably hanging out and making eyes

(While across the room he stares)
G                             A
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
 A/A#              Bm                 A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or 
A/A#               Bm        A
Her to second-guess but I guess)
       G              D
That I can live without you but
 G              A            D
(Without I'll be miserable at best)

x2 (2nd time with ah dah dahs)


D              G                   A
And this will be the first time in a week
            F#m               Bm
That I'll talk to you and I can't speak
                                A
It?s been 3 whole days since I've had sleep
                            D
Cause I dream of his lips on your cheek
                                  G
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
    A                         F#m
But we both know that I'm not that strong


Bm                        A
And I miss the lips that made me fly so...

[Chorus]
D
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight

I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
 A/A#              Bm                 A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or 
A/A#               Bm        A
Her to second-guess but I guess)
       G              D
That I can live without you but
 G              A
(Without I'll be miserable)
G              D
That I can live without you but
G              A
(Without I'll be miserable)
G              D
That I can live without you but
      G              A            D
(Oh without I'll be miserable at best)
