Intro: (E5) (E5) (E5) (E5) 

(E5) I worked myself to the bone
Tired as a man can get
It's the only way that I know
Might help me to forget
I lay me (F#m) down
(A5) And I pray my soul to (E5) keep.
Now, it's two a.m. and I should be
Sleeping like a log
But I can't blame the poundin' rain
Or the neighbor's barkin' dog
It's what you (F#m) do to me
(A5) This heartache never (E5) sleeps.

  Yeah, (C#m) twenty-four hours of every day
  I can (A) feel it down in my (E5) chest
  (C#m) From the moment you walked away
  Well, (A) I ain't got no (B) rest
  It won't let me (A) be___ee(F#m)___ee(B) 
  This heartache never sl(E5)eeps.

Well, like a ghost that haunts me
Down at the end of my bed
Your memory, it taunts me
And it won't stay out of my head
Till you come back
It ain't never gonna leave.
So I might as well get out of this bed
And put the coffee on
Girl you know I'm not alone
At the breakin' of the dawn
'Cause just like me
This heartache never sleeps.

Repeat Chorus

  It won't let me (A) be (F#m) (B) 
  (NC) This heartache never sl(E5)eeps.
  It won't let me (E5) be...
  It won't' let me (E5) be...
  This heartache never sl(E5)eeps
