Intro: E D E A 


verse 1 
A                                    D 
This falling out of your love, baby, will hurt  

for quite awhile. 
         E                                D                   
But I'll pick me up and dust me off, then straighten  
E     A    E 
up my smile. 
A             E      A                D 
Then I'll see things like love again, from a different  

point of view. 
E                           D          E      A 
Perhaps a little wiser now, because of losing you. 


Bridge 
D                                   E             A 
I've got to get me off my knees and learn to walk alone. 
B                                     E             C#m E 
Reach inside and find the strength to make it on my own. 
A                                     D 
The reddest rose will fade and wither without the taste  

of rain. 
    E                          D             E       A    E 
And someday my forget-you-nots will die from lack of pain. 


verse 2 
A                                         D 
Then these aching arms that miss you will reach for someone  

new. 
    E                           D          E      A 
And maybe I can love her better because of losing you.
