              D             A           G 
When once the last time I told you 
      D             E7       A 
"Just how much that you mean to me?" 
    D        A            G 
I'm sorry, I took you for granted 
          D         A            D 
But with- out you I know how I'd be 
 
Chorus 
   A                    D 
I- magine a day without sun shine 
     A                   D 
Or a mountain not havin' a view 
    F#           B7          E7 
And pictures the heavens not holdin' the stars 
       G           A            D   A G A 
That's what I'd be like without you | | 
 
   D           A             G 
It tears me to think I could lose you 
   D           E7       A 
By leavin' you here all alone 
       D        A           G 
But if you ever fall out of love yet 
  D            A        D 
I know how I'd be on my own 
 
Chorus 
   A                        D 
I- magine a day without sun shine 
     A                   D 
Or a mountain not havin' a view 
    F#           B7          E7 
And pictures the heavens not holdin' the stars 
       G           A            D   Em F#m 
That's what I'd be like without you 
 
Tag 
       G           A            D   A G A D 
That's what I'd be like without you
