Capo 2

       D          A               D
I come home and I sit down by the door
       D                             A
I just sit and dream my lonely life away
             D                                         G 
I just can't stand the thought that I won't see you anymore
          D       A                G  D  
I guess I die ten thousand times a day


Without soul, a life comes to its end
I ceased to live the night you went away
If you walk through that door then I'll start to live again
I guess I die ten thousand times a day


I pick up each thing you used to touch
I call to mind each tender word you say
If I've hurt you, it's just because I love you much too much
I guess I die ten thousand times a day
