I'll Close My Eyes

Who can a man
Lie next to a woman
A woman who loves him
And still feel alone
There was a day
I lit up your whole world

Now the sun's hanging low
And the sky is growing colder

I'll close my eyes
Pretend this ain't happening
I'll close my [A]eyes
Those tail lights I'll never see
I just can't bear to [C7]see this house empty
As empty as the whole in my [A]chest
Where my [A]heart used to [C7]be
I'll close my [A]eyes
So I don't have to [C7]watch you [A7leave

You left your ɾing
On the dining ɾoom table
You come home late
We don't even fight
Once we were lovers
Now I hardly know you
You turn down the light
Night after night
I lay by your side

I'll close my [A]eyes
Pretend this ain't happening
I'll close my [A]eyes
Those tail lights I'll never see
I just can't bear to [C7]see this house empty
As empty as the whole in my [A]chest
Where my [A]heart used to [C7]be
I'll close my [A]eyes
So I don't have to [C7]watch you [A7leave
