I Cared For You More Than I Knew Chords & Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

[C]You say it’s better if we drift a[G7]part

Although you see that it’s breaking my [C]heart

How can you leave me so lonely and [G7]blue

Knowing just how I’ve been counting on [C]you

We once was so happy it all seems a [G7]shame

And do you feel like that I am to [C]blame

Dear if I failed you oh please tell me [G7]now

And then maybe we can patch it up some[C]how

Now that I’ve lost you the whole world seems [G7]wrong

I don’t see how I can face it a[C]lone

For I’ve tried so hard to do right by [G7]you

And really I cared for you more than I [C]knew

When I first met you I heard people [G7]say

That there’d come a time when you’d treat me this [C]way

I did not believe them I just let them [G7]rave

Determined to stick by you clear to the [C]grave

It would have been better had we never [G7]met

Then I would not have so much to for[C]get

If I’d only dreamed dear that there’d come this [G7]day

Five years I could have used better some [C]way

[C]You say it’s better if we drift a[G7]part

Although you see that it’s breaking my [C]heart

How can you leave me so lonely and [G7]blue

Knowing just how I’ve been counting on [C]you
