[Verse 1]
 
     G                         Am
It's cold here in the city, it always seems that way
    D7                                   Gmaj7 G6  G
And I've been thinking about you almost every day
G                              Am
Thinking about the good times, thinking about the rain
D7                                Gmaj7  G6  G
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again

I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be
    C                  D         G     G/F#  Em  D  C  C/B  Am
But more than anything else, I'm sorry for myself
       D7          Gmaj7     G6  G
'Cause you're not here with me

Our friends all ask about you, I say you're doing fine
    D7                               Gmaj7 G6  G
And I expect to hear from you almost any time
G                         Am
They all know I'm crying, I can't sleep at night
D7                           Gmaj7  G6  G
They all know I'm dying down deep inside

I'm sorry for the things I didn't say
    C                  D         G     G/F#  Em  D  C  C/B  Am
But more than anything else, I'm sorry for myself

I can't believe you went away
