Intro: [Fm] [Bbm7] [C] [Fm]
I'm trying so hard to [Bbm7] forget you. [Eb7]
And leave the life we had be-[Abmaj7] hind [C#maj7]
And there are times I feel the [G7] day has come
I've chased [C7] you from my [Fm] mind
But I'm afraid there's always [Bbm7] something [Eb7]
That sets me back and makes me [Abmaj7] see [C#maj7]
You're more than just a memory [G7] in the past
You're [C7] still a part of [Fm] me
Chorus: So [F] how do I [Bbm7] stop loving you? [Eb7]
Forget things that [Abmaj7] we used to do? [Fm]
For-[Eb] get all the [Bb] dreams that we shared? [C7]
And how my life was [Fm] knowing you cared?
Why do [F7] I end [Bbm7] up where I start
Each [Eb7] time I [Abmaj7] try? [C#maj7]
Just tell me how [G7] I can forget [C7]
So I can say [Fm] goodbye
I'm tired of all the lonely [Bbm7] evenings [Eb7]
And all the many times I've [Abmaj7] cried [C#maj7]
I'm tired of wondering what I [G7] might have done
to [C7] keep you by my [Fm] side.
And reaching out across your [Bbm7] pillow, [Eb7]
I start remembering you're [Abmaj7] gone [C#maj7]
And though I know that we can [G7] never be
The [C7] pain in me goes [Fm] on
Chorus: So [F] how do I [Bbm7] stop loving you? [Eb7]
Forget things that [Abmaj7] we used to do? [Fm]
For-[Eb] get all the [Bb] dreams that we shared? [C7]
And how my life was [Fm] knowing you cared?
Why do [F7] I end [Bbm7] up where I start
Each [Eb7] time I [Abmaj7] try? [C#maj7]
Just tell me how [G7] I can forget [C7]
So I can say [Fm] goodbye
* So [F] how do I [Bbm7] stop loving you? [Eb7]
Please tell me [C7] why…
I find it so [G7] hard to forget [C7]
And hard to say Good-[Fm] bye
