Willie Nelson - Both Ends Of The Candle

G D7 G
i’ve been trying so hard to forget you
D7 G
but this chore of forgetting i find
C G
has me burning both ends of the candle
D7 G
and fighting a battle with time

D7 G
what i’d give just to sleep for a moment
D7 G
but it’s a luxury that i can’t afford
C G
for i know that i just dream about you
D7 G
and my tears start falling once more

C G
so i’m burning both ends of the candle
D7 G
i just hope that it lasts through the night
C G
for each moment the candle is burning
D7 G
brings closer the ending of life
