Lyrics

Guitar (capo 3rd fret)

C g/b
It makes no diff'rence where I turn
Em g/d am7
I can't get over you and the flame still burns
C g/b
It makes no diff'rence, night or day
Em g/d am7
The shadow never seems to fade away

Am7/d g em7 c d g c
And the sun don't shine anymore
G em7 c d g c g
And the rains fall down on my door

G
Now there's no love
Dm
As true as the love
C a7
That dies untold
G em7 c d g c g
But the clouds never hung so low before

It makes no diff'rence how far I go
Like a scar the hurt will always show
It makes no diff'rence who I meet
They're just a face in the crowd
On a dead-end street
And the sun don't shine anymore
And the rains fall down on my door

These old love letters
Well, I just can't keep
'Cause like the gambler says
Read 'em and weep
And the dawn don't rescue me no more

D bm
Without your love I'm nothing at all
C cm
Like an empty hall it's a lonely fall
D bm
Since you've gone it's a losing battle
C
Stampeding cattle
Am d
They rattle the walls

And the sun don't shine anymore
And the rains fall down on my door

Well, I love you so much
It's all I can do
Just to keep myself from telling you
That I never felt so alone before
