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)
D G A F#m Bm Bm A
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
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
(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)
* A/A# - this chord is basically an A major chord (which you are already playing
before hand) but sliding the A note up to A# (1 fret on a guitar - or up to the next black note
a piano) so you are playing the three notes of the triad of A# C# E
