1.

Am7D7

I'm trying so hard to forget you.

Gmaj7Cmaj7

And leave the life we had behind.

F#/A#

And there are times I feel the day has come,

B7EmEmmaj7Em7

I've chased you from my mind.

E7/G#Am7D7

But I'm afraid there's always something,

Gmaj7Cmaj7

That sets me back and makes me see.

F#/A#

You're more than just a memory in the past,

B7Em

You're still a part of me.

So how do I stop loving you?

Gmaj7Gmaj7/F#Em

Forget things that we used to do?

Em/DAB

Forget all the dreams that we shared?

Em

And how my life was knowing you cared?

E7/G#Am7C/ED7/CGmaj7Cmaj7

Why do I end up where I start, each time I try?

Am7B7

Just tell me how I can forget,

EmAm7/EB/EEm

So I can say goodbye...

2.

Am7D7

I'm tired of all the lonely evenings,

Gmaj7Cmaj7

And all the many times I've cried.

F#/A#

I'm tired of wondering what I might have done

B7EmEmmaj7Em7

to keep you by my side.

E7/G#Am7D7

And reaching out across your pillow,

Gmaj7Cmaj7

I start remembering you're gone.

F#/A#

And though I know that we can never be,

B7Em

The pain in me goes on.

So how do I stop loving you?

Please tell me why...

I find it so hard to forget.

And hard to say... Goodbye.
