Intro: D A Bm A G D 
 
D                           
You told me I'd regret it 
Bm 
On the day I left you 
  G 
I had the nerve to laugh 
             A 
As I walk away 
D 
Well, its been six months  
                    
And eighteen days 
Bm 
Feelin' nothin' but  
 
This empty pain 
    G 
And I just had to tell you 
      A 
Even if there's nothin'  
 
Left to say 
D                                      
I felt the bunin' on the hurtin' side 
Bm 
Of a love that didn't work out right 
G 
The empty longin' on a long cold night 
A 
I have been lonely 
D 
I've leaned on no one when the times got rough 
Bm 
When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough 
G 
Know what it's like to live without your love 
A 
I have been lonely
 
 
 
D 
I was gonna show you 
Bm 
That I didn't need you 
    G                        A 
Now I need to show you i was wrong 
D 
Here I am knees to the floor 
Bm 
I don't wanna live like this no more 
 G 
I'm heartbeat in misery 
     A 
Now all my pride is gone 
 
Chorus: 
 
D 
I felt the bunin' on the hurtin' side 
Bm 
Of a love that didn't work out right 
G 
The empty longin' on a long cold night 
A 
I have been lonely 
D 
I've leaned on no one when the times got rough 
Bm 
When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough 
G 
Know what it's like to live without your love 
A 
I have been lonely 
 
A 
I have been lonely
