A Way To Survive

C                          D7
I look at your picture too often

   G7                      C    G7
It helps keep your memory alive

         C                     D7
It's not healthy they say to relive yesterday

        G7                  C
But for me it's a way to survive


       F               G7   C            F
I must cling to what's gone if I'm to go on

  C              G7          C    G7
I can't face the future I've tried

   C                         D7
Perhaps for the rest looking back isn't best

        G7                  C
But for me it's a way to survive


C                                    D7
When my heart aches I read all your letters

    G7                            C    G7
And the words make our love seem alive

     C                     D7
They say I can't last if I live in the past

        G7                  C
But for me it's a way to survive


       F               G7   C            F
I must cling to what's gone if I'm to go on

  C              G7          C    G7
I can't face the future I've tried

   C                         D7
Perhaps for the rest looking back isn't best

        G7                  C
But for me it's a way to survive


        G7                  C
But for me it's a way to survive
