G
I can't belive your calling me
C                            G
Did you run out of things to do

Are you bothered by my old memory
    C                     D
Has guilt got the best of you
  C
I can't imagine what you'd want with me
                            Em  
You must have come up short tonight
      C
But I thought you were happy being free
                                   D
But your voice tells me that's not right
                           Am/7
Guess things are tough all over
D                          G
Even on the single side of town
                             Am/7
I guess it's harder than you thought it be
D                      G
Without my loving arms around
                            C
And now the beating of your lonely heart
                        Em
Is the cold nights only sound
                           Am/7
Guess things are tough all over
D                         G
When old memories get you down
G
Well you ask me if I think about you
C                            G
What are you expecting me to say

Well I do but I can live without you
C                       D
It's too late to ask anyway
             C
So if you're calling for sympathy
                               Em
Cause I'm getting harder to forget
        C
I won't be a one night remedy
                             D
To help you live with your regret
                           Am/7
Guess things are tough all over
D                          G
Even on the single side of town
                             Am/7
I guess it's harder than you thought it be
D                      G
Without my loving arms around
                            C
And now the beating of your lonely heart
                        Em
Is the cold nights only sound
                           Am/7
Guess things are tough all over
D                         G
When old memories get you down
