DM AM G x 4
(high falsetto)

I can't feel the love without you
I won't feel a thing without you
There's no day from night without you
There's no way I could live without you

Bb F
And I won't leave without you

Verse
Seems like only yesterday you left
Packed your case in haste and flew
I looked down at my shoes like a schoolboy
Should have tried with lie to keep you

To clear my head I read a book
about a french soldier in world war one
In the trench, he never saw daylight
At night, he kept his hand on his gun

It's shame he could not walk away.

Channel surfed through Oprah and MTV
I laugh at poor fools baring their souls
Some folks will do anything for attention
Just watch the ads with old Bob Dole

It's a shame he could not walk away.

I look in the windows of coffee shops
four bucks for a cup of joe just aint right. 
bump into a kid with an ‘Offspring' t-shirt
looks like he spoiling for a fight

It's a shame he could not walk away.

BREAK
I finally threw out the rest of your clothes, 
I sure you didn't want them anyway.
I found some old pictures of you and me,
I put them in a box sealed with packing tape
