[Intro]
F#m  A  D  G  D  A
[Verse 1]
I Dcry myself to sleep each night, Gwishing I could hold you tight.
Life Dseems so empty since you went aAway.
The Dpillow where you'd lay your head, now Gholds my lonely tears instead.
And it Akeeps right on a-hurtin' since you're Dgone.
(GDoo-doo-doo-Ddoo)
[Chorus]
It Akeeps right on a-hurtin' every Gminute of the day.
Every Ahour you're away I feel so GloneDly.
DAnd I can't help it, I don't think I can go Gon.
And it Akeeps right on a-hurtin' since you're Dgone.
[Verse 2]
AThey Dtell me that I shouldn't cry but Gwhen I see you passin' by, 
My Dheart breaks down and cries a million Atears.
You Dbroke my heart and set me free but Gyou forgot your memory.
And it Emkeeps right on a-Amhurtin' since you're Dgone.
(GDoo-doo-doo-Ddoo)
[Chorus]
It Akeeps right on a-hurtin' every Gminute of the day.
Every Ahour you're away I feel so GloneDly.
DAnd I can't help it, I don't think I can go Gon.
And it Akeeps right on a-hurtin' since you're Dgone.
[Outro]
(DDoo-doo-doo-Gdoo-Ddoo-Emdoo-Ddoo)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
