G 
Every morning when I get up 


I see your face in my coffee cup 

        C                  G 
Looking back at me looking back at me 


Another morning another day 


And still I’m feeling the same old way 

          C                   G 
I’m still missing you missing you 


C                   G 
It should have been easy 

   D7               G 
It should have been easy 

C                   G             C 
It should have been oh so easy to do 

                      D7   G 
But I’m still getting over you 



I keep seeing old friends of mine 


They all smile and they say in time 

         C                G 
I’ll get over you I’ll be good as new 


I guess somehow some day I will 


I’ll forget you I know but still 

      C                              G 
It’ll take some time it’ll take some time 


 C                   G 
It should have been easy 

   D7               G 
It should have been easy 

C                   G             C 
It should have been oh so easy to do 

                      D7   G 
But I’m still getting over you 


C                   G 
It should have been easy 

   D7               G 
It should have been easy 

C                   G             C 
It should have been oh so easy to do 

                      D7   G 
But I’m still getting over you
