Ev'ry night I sit here  by my window

Staring at the lonely avenue

Things like a lover's vow, things  that we don't do now

And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to 
      C                  C7               F        Fm 
When I'm not thinkin' of just how much I love you 
     C        C/B      Dm7        G      C     F    C  C/B

I still can hear the jukebox softly playin'          
C     C/B      Am7    Am7/G    G    D7   G7 
And the face I see each day belongs to you

Though there's not a single sound, and there's nobody else around

And the heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to
