Strum
D-DU-UDU
 They tell me I'm the talk of the town
 I've been staying  home alone  every night
 It's nobody's business  where I'm bound
 As if to be alone  and lonely  just ain't right
 On a old freight train moving  down the line
 
 I'm counting each day and every minute that your away
 I've never been the stay  at home kind
 But for you  it's just the price  that I pay
 It's just the price  I pay for loving you
 The price  I pay for needing  you so much
 The price  I pay for needing you
 And putting  all this time  between us
I  knew I was in trouble  when we met
Dark  clouds all around  me I couldn't find the light
The  hard time ain't hard  to forget
I  believe in love  at first sight
I  put my heart and soul  on the line
 And know your love  is with  me every day
Your  picture always there  on my mind
 But for you  it's just the price  that I pay
 It's just the price  I pay for loving you
 The price  I pay for needing  you so much
 The price  I pay for needing you
 And putting  all this time  between us
