The Day You Went Away

By Roger Creager G D C A crowded restaurant and here you are G D C I'm doing fine but you have come so far G D C I ask how long its been like I dont know G D Ive been counting the days since youve been gone C Youd think my love would show Chorus: G D C But I hear youre doing great out on your own G D C Youre having a ball, have friends that call you on the telephone G B7 Em C Youve got hopes, Youve got dreams , youve really got it made C G I used to feel the same until the day you went away G D C I dont know why I thought youd be around G D C Looking back I see I really held you down G D C Thinking that Id always have it all, G D C I hate the way youre riding high then all at once you take the fall Chorus Em D C Everyone is looking right at you G D C When you walk in you really steal the show Em D C Youre the one thing I shouldve held on to Am G C D But standing today I'm trying like hell to let you go Solo Chorus
