I Gave Up (On Trying to Get Over You) David Allan Coe
David Allan Coe – I Gave Up (On Trying To Get Over You)
[F]Everything’s the way that you [Bb]left it baby
The [C]broken heart, the tears and the [F]pain
I set your plate on the [Bb]table each night
[C]Just to keep from going in[F]sane
I’ve tried [Bb]whiskey and women
Till it [F]didn’t matter
If I [C]knew my right from my [F]wrong
Then I [F]made a decision
To [Bb]live with your memory
Pre[C]tending that you wasn’t [F]gone.
Chorus:
I [Bb]Gave Up On Trying To Get [F]Over You
I [C]done everything that a [F]man can do
To [Bb]soften the pain when your [F]love was through
I [C]Gave Up On Trying To Get [F]Over You.[Bb] [F]
[F]All of your clothes I hung
[Bb]Back in the closet
[C]Next to the bed beside [F]me
I put your pictures [Bb]up on the wall
[C]Just the way that they used to [F]be
I threw [Bb]lipstick and perfume
All [F]over the dresser
And [C]cigarette butts on the [F]floor
[F]It’s hard to conceive
[Bb]Anyone could believe
[C]That you don’t live here [F]anymore.
Chorus:
I [C]Gave Up On Trying To Get [F]Over You.[Bb] [F]
