[Bb]
[Gm] [C]
[Dm] Two years since you walked away from me
Since all [Gm] of our scattered dreams
Were [F] just thrown [C] away
[F] I'm finally getting back to what I used to be
Shared my pain [Gm] with my family
[F] I think I'm on [C] my way
[Gm] I can [F] sleep at night
I don't reach for you when I wake [Gm] up
But it's [C] taking some [G] time
[Gm] I can [F] live my life without praying that
We could [Gm] make up
I'm moving on
I'm feeling [Eb] strong inside
[Gm] But sometimes I [Dm] cry
[F] When I'm all [Gm] alone
With this heart of [Cm] mine
[Bb]
[C] Sometimes [Gm] I cry
[F]
Although [Dm] you've been gone
[Gm] For a long, [Cm] long [Bb] time
Oh, [Cm] yeah
[Dm] I [F] heard you're moving in with someone new
[Dm] I hope [Cm] all [Gm] your dreams come true
[F]
And you'll both be [A] happy, [Dm] yeah
Been [Gm] long enough for [F] me to take a look around
[Gm] I bet I know we've been hanging out
[Cm] [Eb] She's [F] been good for [D] me
[Gm]
But when we're [F] making love
She don't take me there like you used [Gm] to
And it hurts [G] when I lie
[C] [D]
[Eb] [Bb] Help me understand [F] how to push you [Bb] out
Forced me to [Gm] let you go
Cause Lord knows [Bb] I've tried
But sometimes [Eb] I cry
[F]
Baby, I've been hurting [Gm] for a long, long [C] time
[Bb]
Yes, I have been
[C] But sometimes [Eb] I [Bb] cry
[F] Ain't nothing [Gm] working for this pain I've [C] mounted
[D] [Bb] Ooh, [Cm] ooh
[Fm]
[Gb] I just have [Ab] to make it
Until [Bb] I can make it
[Dm] There's a smile on [C] my face, yeah
But I'm broken inside
[N]
[Am] Sometimes I cry
[G]
When I'm all, [C]
when I'm all
With this heart of
[F] mine
[D] Sometimes [F] I cry
[A] [G]
[C] Although you've been
[F]
[C] [D]
