Key of G · Chords: I IV

Verse 1

C                                   G7
I can't eat and I can't sleep all I do is sit and cry
                                     C
And listen for your footsteps at the door
                            G7
I keep asking myself why we ever said goodbye
                                         C
And I guess I've shed a million tears or more

Verse 2

                 G7
On my mind on my mind
                                    C
You're always in my heart and on my mind
                                        G7
Once I thought my love had died darling here's what I find
                                    C
You're always in my heart and on my mind

Verse 3

                                  G7
Seems I miss you most of all when twilight shadows fall
                                  C
What a fool I was to ever let you go
                                  G7
If longing for you now could only bring you back somehow
                                    C
You'd be here in these empty arms I know

Verse 2

                 G7
On my mind on my mind
                                    C
You're always in my heart and on my mind
                                        G7
Once I thought my love had died darling here's what I find
                                    C
You're always in my heart and on my mind
