1. When I heard that familiar voice

C G

my heart stopped dead in it's tracks.

G C

Across the room I could see him there,

Am D

a ghost from my past.

G C

But he's too caught up to notice me,

G C

she must be his new love,

Am G C D

I never dreamed that it would hurt this much, it's just…

C D

I know how he feels, how warm his touch is,

G Em

oh, how he feels, how soft his kiss is,

C D G - D - C

and it cuts right down to the bone 'cause I let him go.

C D

I know how he cares, how strong his love can be

G D C

when he believes it's real,

Am - D7 G

oh, I've been down I know how he feels.

2. As long as I kept him out of sight,

G

I kept from going out of my mind,

C - Am

tried to believe that leaving him

D

was somehow justified.

G C

But tonight there's no denying

G C

what a love like his is worth,

Am G C

he once looked at me the way he's looking at her.

D

What a lucky girl !

C D

I know how he feels, how warm his touch is,

G Em

oh, how he feels, how soft his kiss is,

C D G - D - C

and it cuts right down to the bone 'cause I let him go.

C D

I know how he cares, how strong his love can be

G D C

when he believes it's real,

Am - D7 G - C

oh, I've been down and I know how he feels.

Am - D7

+ And it's killing me,

G

oh, I know how he feels !
