The pain goes on forever    (video)

 

    C - C - Bb - G

 

      C                             F                             C                  Bb

1. Every time I see a stranger look at me I call out your name,

C                            Bb             C

    playing the silly game with my dreams.

 

     C                                F                                     C                       Bb

2. Every time I hear the voice of someone here, I turn expecting thee,

C                          Bb             C    C7

    and so I never see what I long for.

        F        G                  Em         Am            D            - D7                G

    People say with each passing day all the loneliness     will disappear.

 

        C                              Em

But nothing that I do can stop me loving you,

        F                     G

the pain goes on forever,

         C                               Em

and nothing that I say can take your love away

          F          G   C

from me - - - my love.

 

+  Bb

 

       C                        F                                     C                             Bb

3. Now that I go to places, we both know, pretending I'm still with you,

            C                        Bb                C      C7

    the things we used to do are all around me,

    F        G                  Em        Am          D               - D7                 G

    time alone doesn't work for me, in a million years,     I'll still be waiting.

 

+  CHORUS (3x) ....
