D You learn to take your coffee black
You learn to drink your whiskey neat
G You learn to take your shower cold
And sleep on tired feet
D You learn to order dinner in
You learn to send the laundry out
You leGarn to amuse yourseAlf
You learn to live without D
You tGell yourself you're rich at last in money and in time D
You drGaw a bath and then unplug the phAone
You pGour yourself a Pinot Clo Du Val 200D3
You sCit a spell a queen upon her thArone
You go to bed aloneD
D You learn to fall asleep alone
You learn to silence ticking clocks
G You learn to turn the shades at night
And double check the locks
D You learn to speak so calmly when
Your heart would like to scream and shout
G You learn to stop and breathe and smiAle
You learn to live withoutD
You fGind the coat and tie you thought you'd given to good wiDll
You toGss his favorite shoes on to the pAile
You sGee him in the faces of the boys he left behDind
And dCie a bit with every tiny smAile
But only for a while.... D
D (one strum)
You learn to count the quiet winds
An hour with no unprompted tears
G (one strum)
And not to count the deadly days
As they fade into years
D You learn to stand alone at last
So brave and bold and strong and stout
You leGarn to somehow like the dark
You eEmven love the doAubt
You leGarn to hold your life inside you
And neDver let it out
You leGarn to live and dEmie and then to lAive
You learn to live withoutD
You learn to live withoutG
You learn to live withoutD
