David Allan Coe – I Gave Up (On Trying To Get Over You)

F Bb

Everything’s the way that you left it baby

C F

The broken heart, the tears and the pain

Bb

I set your plate on the table each night

C F

Just to keep from going insane

Bb

I’ve tried whiskey and women

F

Till it didn’t matter

C F

If I knew my right from my wrong

F

Then I made a decision

Bb

To live with your memory

C F

Pretending that you wasn’t gone.

Chorus:

Bb F

I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You

C F

I done everything that a man can do

Bb F

To soften the pain when your love was through

C F Bb F

I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.

F

All of your clothes I hung

Bb

Back in the closet

C F

Next to the bed beside me

Bb

I put your pictures up on the wall

C F

Just the way that they used to be

Bb

I threw lipstick and perfume

F

All over the dresser

C F

And cigarette butts on the floor

F

It’s hard to conceive

Bb

Anyone could believe

C F

That you don’t live here anymore.

Chorus:

C F Bb F

I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.
