Put yourself in my place, if only for a day,

see if you can stand the awful hurt
I feel inside, oh.

'cause you ain't
been treated right,

Sitting by the telephone,
being left all alone,
Dm C - Bb - G
then
you know why I'm feeling bad.

C D
'cause it hurts to love in

I believed your evil line, now
I'm left alone and crying,
Dm C

alone
to count the stars above.
