(verse 1)
D
I worked myself to the bone,
D
Tired as a man can get,
D
It's the only way that I know Might help me to forget,
D G D
I lay me down And I pray my soul to keep,
D
Now it's two am and I should be sleeping like a log,
D
But I can't blame the poundin' rain,
D
Or the neighbor's barkin' dog,
D G D
It's what you do to me this heartache never sleeps,
G
Yeah twentyfour hours of every day,
D
I can feel it down in my chest,
G
From the moment you walked away,
A7
Well I ain't got no rest,
D - G - A7 - G D
It won't let me be,
G A7 D
This heartache never sleeps,
(verse 2)
D
Well like a ghost that haunts me,
D
Down at the end of my bed,
D
Your memory it taunts me and won't stay out of my head,
D G D
Till you come back it ain't never gonna leave,
D
So I might as well get out of this bed and put the coffee on,
D
Girl you know I'm not alone At the breakin of dawn,
D G D
Cause just like me this heartache never sleeps,
G
Yeah twentyfour hours of every day,
D
I can feel it down in my chest,
G
From the moment you walked away,
A7
Well I ain't got no rest,
D - G - A7 - G - D
It won't let me be,
G A7 D
This heartache never sleeps,
D - G - A7 - G - D
Won't let me be,
D - G - A7 - G - D
Won't let me be,
G A7 D
This heartache never sleeps,
