Johnny Tillotson - It Keeps Right On A Hurtin' Chords

(A)               (A7)
I cry myself to sleep each night          (1962)
(D)
Wishing I could hold you tight
     (A)                              (E7)
Life seems so empty since you went away
        (A)                (A7)
And the pillow where you lay your head
     (D) 
Now holds my empty dreams instead
       (E7)
And it keeps right on a-hurtin'
             (A)
Since you're gone


 
   (E7)                            (D)
It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
      (E7)                         (D)   (A)
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
                             (A7)             (D)
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
       (E7)                                    (A)
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone



 
     (A)                 (A7)
They say a man ain't supposed to cry
     (D)
But when I see you passing by
    (A)                                    (E7)
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
    (A)                 (A7)
The pillow where you lay your head
    (D)
Now holds my empty dreams instead
       (E7)                                    (A)
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

 
   (E7)                            (D)
It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
      (E7)                          (D)   (A)
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
                             (A7)             (D)
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
       (E7)                                    (A)  
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
      (E7)                                      (A)
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
