Lyrics

I (G)al ways need ed time (D)way on my own.

I ’ry nev er thought I’d

need you there when I cried.

And the (G)days feel like years (D)lie when I’m the a lone,

and the bed where you lie is made the up on your side.

When (Am7)you walk a way, I count the (G)steps that you take.

Do you (Cmaj9)see how much I need you right now?

When you’re gone,

the (Em)piec es of my (D)heart are miss ing you.

When you’re gone,

the (Em)face I came to know is miss ing, too.

When you’re gone, the words I need to hear to al ways get me (D)through the day

and make it O K...

I miss you.

I’ve (G)nev er felt this time (D)way on be fore.

Ev ’ry thing that I do

re you minds me of you.

And the (G)clothes you left, they (D)lie on I’m the floor, lone,

and they smell just like you.

I love the things that you do.

When (Am7)you walk a way, I count the (G)steps that you take.

Do you (Cmaj9)see how much I need you right now?

When you’re gone,

the (Em)piec es of my (D)heart are miss ing you.

When you’re gone,

the (Em)face I came to know is miss ing, too.

When you’re gone, the words I need to hear to al ways get me (D)through the day

and make it O K...

I miss you.

I’ve

I miss you.

We were made for each oth er, out here for ev er, I know we were.

Yeah, yeah.

(Em)All I ev er want ed was for you to know, (C)ev ’ry thing I do, I give my (D)heart and soul.

(C#)I can hard ly breathe; I need to feel you here with (D)me.

When you’re (Cmaj9)gone, the (Em7)piec es of my (D)heart are miss ing you.

When you’re gone,

the (Em)face I came to know is miss ing, too.

When you’re gone, the words I need to hear will (D)al ways get me through the day

and make it o kay.

I miss you.
