Theres A Limit

View chords used in this chart
G C G
In my troubled sleep my hands reach out to touch you
D7 G
But you're no longer there to greet my hungry hands
C G
Then I wake up and I cry out in the darkness
D7 G
And wonder how much more of this my heart can stand
 
G7 C D7
A man can stand so much hurting
G
I've stood a lot that's for certain
C D7
But without your love I'm bound to lose my mind
G
I've cried so much I hurt all over
C
And breakin forty's gettin closer
G D7 G
There's a limit and I've almost reached mine
 
Once I had my pride and called myself a strong man
 
But my strength and pride walked out the door with you
 
Now this awful aching hurt keeps tearing at me
 
It's killing me to think of you with someone new
