Desperation
by Gene Watson
G+G G7G7
On this lonely bed I'm lying deep inside my mind just crying
C majorC G+G
Far away to break this hold she has on me
D7D7 G+G
I wish that she would call but the phone upon the wall
A7A7 D7D7
Seems to turn the time into eternity
G+G G7G7
She keeps walking through my brain Lord and I can't stand the strain
C majorC G+G
That facing life without her brings to mind
C majorC G+G C majorC
Hurtin' heavy hanging on realizin' that she's gone
G+G D7D7 G+G
It is only desperation that I find
C majorC G+G
Desperation has a hold upon my body and my soul
A7A7 D7D7
Loving her was all I had and now I've lost control
G+G C majorC A7A7
Help me make it to tomorrow Lord send me down your soothing word
G+G D7D7 C majorC G+G
And calm this desperation in my s-oul
G7G7
Lord the world is filled with others who were broken hearted lovers
C majorC G+G
And I know they must have faced a night like this
D7D7 G+G
Empty heart and all alone hurtin' clear down to the bone
A7A7 D7D7
Breathing life into a sweet remembered kiss
G+G G7G7
Life is just an endless motion yet I can't dispel the notion
C majorC G+G
That without her loving I can't make it through
C majorC G+G C majorC
I'm dreaming daydreams of the past knowing I have seen the last
G+G D7D7 G+G
Of her love and there's nothing I can do
