Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
                                     G
Do you think about me since I'm gone?
                          D
Is that why you can't stop drinkin'?
                  Am
Is that why you're  sinkin'?
          C                   G
Did my leavin' get the best of you?
                                      G
Have you heard what I've been writin'?
                                D
I hope you don't know it's about you
                          Am
'Cause all my time without  you
                       C                           G
Has got me sinkin' down to all the depths of my despair
G7                         C              D
  Are you dancin' with another lonely drifter
 
 
[Chorus]
          G           D/F#    Em
Or are you spinnin' on    your  own?
C                                   D
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man
               G                 D/F#             Em
Or did you turn him down and just    make your way  home
C                                    D
To tell me pretty lies until that mornin' sun does rise
          G              D/F#              Em
When I see you in a different light of day?
        C                              D
But the only light right now is in your eyes
                 G
And I want you to stay
                                          G
Most times, you don't seem worth the trouble
 
 
[Verse 2]
                                   D
But when we're right, it's like I'm dreamin'
                     Am
Always havin' trouble  breathin'
                    C
Baby, you're the reason
                          G
Girl, you take my breath away
                          G
And if you ever do forgive me
                                 D
I'll show the world that you're a star
                                 Am
But you just love me when you're lonely
                           C                            G
And act like you don't know me 'til the light turns into dark
G7                         C              D
  Are you dancin' with another lonely drifter
 
 
[Chorus]
          G           D/F#    Em
Or are you spinnin' on    your  own?
C                                   D
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man
               G                 D/F#             Em
Or did you turn him down and just    make your way  home
C                                    D
To tell me pretty lies until that mornin' sun does rise
          G              D/F#              Em
When I see you in a different light of day?
        C                              D
But the only light right now is in your eyes
                 C    G
And I want you to stay
              Do you think about me since I′m gone?
Is that why you can't stop drinking?
Is that why you′re sinking?
Did my leaving get the best of you?

Have you heard what I've been writing?
Hope you don't know it′s about you.
Cause all my time without you,
Has got me sinking down to all the depths of my despair.

Are you dancing with another lonely drifter?
Or are you spinning on your own?
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man?
Or did you turn him down and just make your way home?

Tell me pretty lies until that morning sun does rise,
When I see you in a different light of day.
But the only light right now is in your eyes,
And I want you to stay.

Most times you don′t seem worth the trouble.
When we're right it′s like I'm dreaming,
Always having trouble breathing,
Baby you′re the reason, girl you take my breath away.

And if you ever do forgive me,
I'll show the world that you′re a star.
But you just love me when you're lonely,
And act like you don't know me,
′Til the light turns into dark.

Are you dancing with another lonely drifter?
Or are you spinning on your own?
Did you take his hand and promise he could be your man?
Or did you turn him down and just make your way home?

Tell me pretty lies until that morning sun does rise,
When I see you in a different light of day.
But the only light right now is in your eyes,
And I want you to stay.
