Dm              Am      Gm
I've called you so many times today
      Dm             Am             Gm
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
     Dm        Am           Gm
That you don't ever want to see me again
         Dm              Am               Gm
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten

   A#          F       A#   F
I guess you'd call it cowardice
         C      G          C       Asus4
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

Chorus:
A#
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
Gm
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
Asus4
I can't, I can't, I can't,

                Dm Gm
I can't stand losing you
Dm     Gm           Dm      Gm
    I can't stand losing you
Dm    Gm            Dm      Gm
    I can't stand losing you
Dm    Gm            Dm      Gm
    I can't stand losing you

I see you've sent my letters back
And my LP records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say

You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense

Chorus:
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing

  Dm
I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care so I won't cry
But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And all this guilt will be on your head

I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full to swallow my pride

Chorus:
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand
Can't stand losing you
