G                   |C      G      | 
   A love that runs,   away from me.

   Blues that keeps,    on bothering me.

Ab                       |Db         Ab  | 
   That lonesome feeling,    all the time. 
Ab                  |Eb                 | 
   Knowing that you,   could not be mine.

   Vows that we,      can never keep.

   So far away from you, and all your cha -  rm.
