INTRO: |E |BBAG#mF#m|
VERSE 1:
E |AE
I've been up and down the highway,
|AF#7 |DB7
and I've seen what a man can do.
|E |AE |
To some little girl a-long the byway,
AB7 |EBAG#mF#m|
that's why I sing this song to you. If you
BRIDGE:
EE7
find your baby's gone,
|A
and you don't know where or when.
|EE7 |
You wonder, yes you wonder,
F#7B7
If you'll ever see him a-gain.
|EE7
Just re-member, re-member,
|AAm
these simple words I brought.
CHORUS:
|EB7
Soon it won't hurt, half as much.
|EA
No it won't hurt, half as much.
|EB7
No it won't hurt, half as much
|EBAG#mF#m |
as you thought. 'Cause
VERSE 2:
E |AE |
I've been up and down the highway,
AF#7 |DB7 |
and I watch them as they pass by.
E |AE |
Broken hearts and I wish that they go my way,
AB7 |E
I'd save them every little teardrop they cry.
BAG#mF#m|
Won't you listen. If you
BRIDGE:
EE7 |
think you can't go on,
A |
and life ain't got it for you no more.
EE7 |
You're waitin' every night,
F#7B7
for him to come walkin' through that door.
|EE7
Just re-member, re-member,
|AAm
these simple words that I brought.
CHORUS:
|EB7
Soon it won't hurt, half as much.
|EA
No it won't hurt, half as much.
|EB7
No it won't hurt, half as much
|EB7
as you thought.
|EB7
Well it won't hurt, half as much.
|EA
No it won't hurt, half as much.
|EB7
Lord, it won't hurt, half as much
|EB7
as you thought.
OUTRO (in fade out):
|EB7
And everytime you're sad, you cry.
|EA|
Just feel like, you won't lay down and dy.
