TILL I CAN MAKE IT ON MY OWN
By Tammy Wynette
G D7 C G
I'll need t-ime to get you off my mind
C
And I may sometimes bother you
G
Try to be in touch with you
D7 G
Even ask to much of you from time to time
D7
Now and then
C G
Lord you know I'll need a friend
C
Till I get used to losing you
G
Let me keep on using you
D7 G
Till I can make it on my own
D7
I'll get by
C G
But no matter how I try
C
There'll be times you know I'll call
G
Chances are my tears will fall
D7 G
And I'll have no pride at all from time to time
D7
But they say
C G
Oh there'll be a brighter day
C
But till then I'll lean on you
G
That's all I mean to do
D7 G
Till I can make it on my own
C G
Surely someday I'll look up and see the morning sun
C D7
Without another lonely night be-hind me
C G
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my crying's done
D7 C G
No more hurtin' memories can f-ind me
D7
But till then
C G
Lord you know I'm gonna need a friend
C
Till I get used to losing you
G D7 G
Let me keep on using you till I can make it on my own
D G
Till I can make it on my own
