sweet tune. Excellent playing !

Thanks for sharing

Thank you for your kind words Peatle

I only wish I had a decent singing voice

That looks like a very cool product -wish I played well enough to actually know what it does, how to use it, or why I even would need one.

You guys are way out of my league -   I am so  envious - it looks like it must be so much fun.

Nicely done !

Having your son ( I assume)  give you flowers so innocently and unconditionally sincere made it fantastic!

Thanks for sharing

This is the link to the song lyrics and chords on Chordie in the chopro format

I find it easier to play from there and you can change chords if you want  to.

Thank you so much for your comments

Ironically I had just changed the one line from smell to sweet breath

and I struggled with the other line you caught.

Thanks my friend -  do you think the chords are ok 
It sounds ok to me when I play it - but then again it is me playing so who the heck knows. 

Thanks Phill   your advice is always welcomed !!

That certainly did not need an overdrive pedal - it was outstanding!
Great cover - and as Peatle said - Holy cow is the bar set high !!
Very, very cool

I always use Tire Rack --- have had excellent tires and great prices

Yup
Awful news - But the news out of Las Vegas is more tragic. 59 dead and over 400 wounded. 

This world has some crazy damn people in it

May God bless Tom, his family and all the victims of Las Vegas

I have been re- writing this thing over and over - trying to find the right chords and the right fit with the lyrics. I have modified both.
Phill did an excellent version of the original version.... however  - it was bothering me that something wasn't quite right.  as it turned out - i found that I needed lryic changes that were necessary - which then led me to replay this thing a hundred times or more - until I finally was happy with the chords.
That led me to re-thinking the title of the song -  Which I changed to just   " STONE COLD ".

I think I finally got there - at least it sounds right in my head. I have been finger picking the heck out of this on my Martin ( and occasionally on my Fender 12 string) both sounded great to me. 

anyway - here is the new version

STONE COLD

[C]I think you and I both know
That our[Em] love is passing by
[Am]been trying to think of reasons,
and I'm [F] trying not to  [G]cry
[C]seems  long ago,  you and I
Thought our [Em]lives had turned to gold
[F]now all we have are stormy  nights
where  your [G]heart has turned stone [C]cold

Chorus

[F] you once  said that you'd love me for[C] ever
[F]  now I'm finding out ,  that isn't   [C]true
[F] I know I can't make you [C]love me
But  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
no  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you

.

[C] now I wake up every  morning
and I  [Em] feel the emptiness  inside
[Am] the silence makes me feel like
a [F] part of me has  [G]died
[C]started  looking at  old photographs   
[Em] got me  wishing for days of  old
[F] but love can't be saved by  sweet memories 
Cause  your  [G]heart has turned stone [C]cold

.

Chorus

.
[F] you once  said that you'd love me for[C] ever
[F]  now I'm finding out ,  that isn't   [C]true
[F] I know I can't make you  [C]love me
But  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
no  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you

[C] Now I've got  long,  sleepless nights
Cause I  [Em] can't get you off  my  mind
[Am] never thought it'd  come to this
It's  so  [F]  hard to leave  love  be[G]hind
[C] my friends all tell me to move along
but i [Em] won't listen to what I'm told
[F']  I know what your love was like
before your [G] heart  turned stone[C] cold

.
  Chorus

.
[F] you once  said that you'd love me for[C] ever
[F]  now I'm finding out ,  that isn't   [C]true
[F] I know I can't make you [C]love me
But  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
no  I [G] can't make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
I [G] can’t make myself [F]stop loving [C]you
This is a link to the  same- but it is my songbook in chopro from which for me is a lot easier to see , read, and play - not to mention - scrolling ability

Thanks for giving it a second look and thanks to Phill for a wonderful first version.
