Verse 1:
E/G#
I can't find a reason to let go
     D
Even though you've found a new love
          D
And she's what your dreams are made of
E/G#
I can find a reason to hang on
          D
What went wrong can be forgiven
        A
Without you, it ain't worth livin' alone


Chorus:
    D
Sometimes I wake up crying at night
        A
And sometimes I scream out your name
     A
What right does she have to take your heart away
         E
When for so long, you were mine


Verse 2:
  E/G#
I took out all the pictures of our wedding day
         D
It was a time of love and laughter
D
Happy ever after
    E/G#
But even those old pictures have begun to fade
       D
Please tell me she's not real
                A
And that you're really coming home to stay

(Repeat Chorus)

D
  I can give you two good reasons
   C
To show you love's not blind
     D
He's two and she's four, and you know they adore you
   E
So how can I tell them you've changed your mind

(Repeat Chorus with 1 step note higher E-->F#)

    E
Sometimes I wake up crying at night
        B
And sometimes I scream out your name
     B
What right does she have to take your heart away
         F#
When for so long, you were mine


Outro:
    B
I remember when you were mine
