Although you're never near

G           C

Your voice I often hear

G             C

Another day,  another night

G       C

I long to hold you tight

G         C

'cause I--'m so lonely

Baby I need your lovin'

C            Am

Got to have all your lovin'

Verse 2:

Some say it's a sign of weakness

For a man to beg

Then weak I would rather be

If it means havin' you to keep

'Cause lately I've been losin' sleep

(chorus)

Bridge:

G / /   /  C    / / /         G   / / / C / / /

     Every night  I call your name

G / /   /       C       /     /      /    G      /     / / C / / /

    Sometimes I wonder, girl, will I ever be the same?

Verse 3:

When you see me smile you know

Things are just gettin' worse

Any smile you might see baby

Has all been rehearsed

Baby I can't go on without ya

This lonliness won't let me live without ya

This emptiness inside me baby

Makes me feel half alive

(repeat chorus and fade)
