C                                     G7 
The sun comes up and brings the dawn  as usual 
 
                                    C 
When I awake I'll find you're gone  as usual 
 
                                   C7             F 
But I can't find a way to let this crazy heart of mine forget 
 
  G7                                   C   G7 
I pretend you're still beside me  as usual 
 
 
     C                      G7 
Each evening I take a walk  as usual 
 
                                   C 
I make believe that we still talk  as usual 
 
              C7               F 
People always stop and stare I guess they just don't see you there 
 
           G7                                     C 
Don't they know you'll always be right here  as usual 
 
 
                               G7 
Today I looked into my mirror  as usual 
 
                                         C 
I told myself that you're still here  as usual 
 
                     C7               F 
And as I stood there telling lies the tears began to fill my eyes 
 
        G7                                 C 
Cause I know I'm only fooling myself  as usual
