A                 D 
When I heard that familiar voice 
                              A      D 
My heart stopped dead in it's tracks 
A                       D 
Across the room I could see him there 
                  E    D 
A ghost from my past 
         E          A      D 
But he's too caught up to notice me 
E           A       D 
She must be his new love 
                     E                  D 
I never dreamed that it would hurt this much 
     E 
It's just 
 
              D 
I know how he feels 
             E 
How warm his touch is 
          A 
Oh how he feels 
             D 
How soft his kiss is 
                              E 
And it cuts right down to the bone 
                A   E  D 
cause I let him go 
              D 
I know how he cares 
               E 
How strong his love can be 
     A  E             D 
When he believes it's real 
                    E 
Oh I've been there 
              A       E  D    A E D 
I know how he feels 
 
A                     D 
As long as I kept him out of site 
                            A    D 
I kept from going out of my mind 
A                     D 
Tried to believe that leavin him  
                   E    D 
was some how justified 
E                   A  D 
But tonight there's no denying  
E                A      D 
What a love like his is worth 
                        E                    D 
He once looked at me the way he's looking at her 
             E 
What a lucky girl 
 
 
              D 
I know how he feels 
             E 
How warm his touch is 
          A 
Oh how he feels 
             D 
How soft his kiss is 
                              E 
And it cuts right down to the bone 
                A   E  D 
cause I let him go 
              D 
I know how he cares 
               E 
How strong his love can be 
     A  E             D 
When he believes it's real 
                    E 
Oh I've been there 
              A      E  D 
I know how he feels 
                  E 
And it's killin me 
                 A      E  D    
Oh I know how he feels
