Intro - D - Bm - Em7 - A - D - Bm - Em7 - A


(verse 1)
              D                Bm
You've been a part of my life, so very long,
     Em7
It's hard for me to believe sometimes, 
      A
That you're really gone,
              D
I tuck your memory away,
        Bm
In my special hiding place,
   Em7                     A
So no one can tell by the look on my face,


(bridge)
             Em7
That you're still in my heart,
   D                 G                 A
Always on my mind, a part of my every day,


(verse 2)
      D                      Bm
Well just last night, I went out for a bite,
Em7                             A
Not tryin to have fun, with ya, on I might,
               D                 Bm
But even the laughter, it wasn't much of a break,
       Em7                          A
Cause right in the middle of my strawberry shake,


(bridge)
       Em7                   Bm         D
Bobbie Jo walked in, with a couple of friends,
                   G
And said, hey man have you seen her at all,
      A
Like where she'd been, and it,


(chorus)
D                      Bm
Struck a nerve and it, hit a vein,
                  G
You'd think from all the tears I cried,
       A
This brokin hearted pain,
                    D
I wouldn't have to, carry you around with me,
      Bm                       Em7
But it seems like everywhere I go,
     A                                G
Somebody wants to know, where've you been,
         Bm                   Em7
Are you commin back again, I swear,
A                        D - Bm - Em7 - A
I can't take you anywhere,



(verse 3)
           D               Bm
So I left alone, I just headed on home,
      Em7                      A
As I listen to the messages on my telephone,
           D
There was one from my sister, 
    Bm  
And one from an old friend, 
                 G
(hey man I drove by your house tonight dude)
A
You wasn't in,


(bridge)
            Em7                           Bm     D
Just checkin up on you boy, I hope you're doin alright,
G                    A
Oh by the way man I seen her last night, and it,



(chorus)
D                      Bm
Struck a nerve and it, hit a vein,
                  G
You'd think from all the tears I cried,
       A
This brokin hearted pain,
                    D
I wouldn't have to, carry you around with me,
      Bm                       Em7
But it seems like everywhere I go,
     A                                G
Somebody wants to know, where've you been,
         Bm                   Em7
Are you commin back again, I swear,
A                        G - Bm
I can't take you anywhere,
           Em7
Oh baby I swear,
A                     D - Bm
I can't take you anywhere,
    Em7         A                     D       Bm - Em7 - A
