Desperation
by Gene Watson

G                                   G7
On this lonely bed I'm lying   deep inside my mind just crying
    C                                   G
Far away to break  this hold she has on me
  D7                                 G
I wish that she would call   but the phone upon the wall
      A7                         D7
Seems to turn the time into eternity

          G                                  G7
She keeps walking through my brain   Lord and I can't stand the strain
     C                                 G
That facing life without her brings to mind
        C                   G                    C
Hurtin' heavy hanging on    realizin' that she's gone
  G           D7              G
It is only desperation that I find

                  C            G
Desperation has a hold upon my body   and my soul
                             A7              D7
Loving her was all I had and now I've lost control
        G                          C                 A7
Help me make it to tomorrow Lord   send me down your soothing word
    G            D7             C  G
And calm this desperation in my s-oul

                                           G7
Lord the world is filled with others   who were broken hearted lovers
      C                                      G
And I know they must have faced a night like this
      D7                            G
Empty heart and all alone   hurtin' clear down to the bone
          A7                           D7
Breathing life into a sweet remembered kiss

        G                           G7
Life is just an endless motion   yet I can't dispel the notion
     C                                  G
That without her loving I can't make it through
    C                                G                       C
I'm dreaming daydreams of the past   knowing I have seen the last
       G                 D7            G
Of her love  and there's nothing I can do
