E                    A            B

They tell me I'm the talk of the town
          A            B           E
I've been staying home alone every night
              A                  B
It's nobody's business where I'm bound
            A         B                 E
As if to be alone and lonely just ain't right
                       A                B
On a old freight train moving down the line
             A                   B                E

I'm counting each day and every minute that your away

                    A             B
I've never been the stay at home kind
        A                 B            E
But for you it's just the price that I pay
              B                       E
It's just the price I pay for loving you
    B               A              E
The price I pay for needing you so much
    F#                      B
The price I pay for needing you
    A                B            E       D A B7
And putting all this time between us
B               E               F#
I knew I was in trouble when we met
E                   F#                        B
Dark clouds all around me I couldn't find the light
B                   E       F#
The hard time ain't hard to forget
E            F#            B
I believe in love at first sight
E                  A           B
I put my heart and soul on the line
              A       B             E
And know your love is with me every day
E                   A           B
Your picture always there on my mind
        A                 B            E
But for you it's just the price that I pay
              B                      E
It's just the price I pay for loving you
    B               A               E
The price I pay for needing you so much
    F#                      B
The price I pay for needing you
    A                B            E       D A B7    E
And putting all this time between us
