Intro:  A 

Verse 

A 
The memories you bring 
A 
Make my eyes both sting 
D                A               E 
I can't help the pain that's tearing 
A 
at my throat and my chest 
A 
where everything is kept 
D                    E 
When I start remembering 
A 
How the clothes that you wore 
A 
Made my heart so sore 
D               A        E 
I just couldn't think anymore of you 
A 
Once you were gone 
A 
And it's been so long 
D                  E 
I've been carrying on. 
  
 
D                    A 
And if you ever came home in the night 
A            E         A 
Darling I'll treat you right 
A                E         A 
And darling I'll treat you right. 

Verse 

A 
You got into your car 
A 
And you drove as far 
D                A       E 
As you could and even further 
       A 
And no matter how I sang 
A 
I just never can 
D                 E 
Stop needing your hand. 
     A 
So I got into my own car 
A 
And I drove as far 
D             A            E 
As I could so that I might forget you. 
A 
I never could 
A 
Does that mean I'm no good? 
D                 E 
If it doesn't, it should. 

 
D                    A 
But if you ever came home in the night 
A           E         A 
Darling I'd treat you right 
A              E         A 
Oh darling I'd treat you right. 

D                A 
If you ever came home in the night 
A           E         A 
Darling I'd treat you right 
A               E         A 
And darling I'd treat you right.
