Intro:

D    Em


Verse 1:
D
How many hours can I go on without her
          Em                                                 D
Cause I'm 5 in now and it seems somehow that I'm supposed to stand
                                                Em
How many miles to drive away her smile I'm only 50 in
Em
And it's creeping in
             D
It's hard to breathe
             Em7
It's hard to breathe

Chorus:
D
How long were you planning on doing this?
                                        Em7
How hard would it be for you to clue me in?
Em7
From the start you should told me
Em7
Cause I'd be better off lonely
D
When the hell did I ever not treat you right?
                                   Em7
Long strung out days and sleepless nights
Em7
From the start you should've told me
                                  D
Cause damn it I'm better off lonely
            Em7
I'm better off lonely


Verse 2:
D
I don't have the answers
                                    Em7
And I'm still wondering if you ever did and if you ever miss
D                                                           Em7
When we had nothing, just lying next to where that oak tree sits
Em7
Is it supposed to hurt like this
             D
It's hard to breathe
             Em7 G
It's hard to breathe


Chorus:
D
How long were you planning on doing this?
                                        Em7
How hard would it be for you to clue me in?
Em7
From the start you should told me
Em7
Cause I'd be better off lonely
D
When the hell did I ever not treat you right?
                                   Em7
Long strung out days and sleepless nights
Em7
From the start you should've told me
                                  D
Cause damn it I'm better off lonely
            Em7
I'm better off lonely

How hard would it be for you to clue me in?
Em7
From the start you should told me
Em7
Cause I'd be better off lonely
D
When the hell did I ever not treat you right?
                                   Em7
Long strung out days and sleepless nights
Em7
From the start you should've told me
                              D
Cause damn it I'm better off lonely
