It's the third hardest thing I'll ever do
G D G
leaving here without you
G C G D C
and the second hardest thing I'll ever do
G D G
is telling her about you
Am
she's been good to me
G
when things were going rough
Am D
how can I tell her now, good ain't good enough
G C G D C
oh, the hardest thing I've ever had to do
G D G
is holding her, and loving you
G C G D C
if she'd give me one good reason I'd be gone
G D G
she ain't done, one thing wrong
G C G D C
so don't expect me to just walk out of the door
G D G
I still love her, but I love you more
Am
she's been good to me
G
when things weren't going right
Am D
she made my days long before you made my nights
G C G D C
so, the hardest thing I've ever had to do
G D G
is holding her, and loving you
G C G D G C
G C G D C
yeah, the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
G D G
is holing her, and loving you
G C G D C
girl, the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
G D G
is holding her, and loving you
