Bm D
I pack my bags and say goodbye to my wife
Em A Bm D
For what seems like the millionth time.
Em A Bm
They said it gets easier, but they lied.
D Em A Bm D
She looks at me and says "really baby, I will be just fine,"
Em A
but then she looks away so I don't have to see her cry.
Bm
And that is when I ask myself;
Bm D Em
How am I supposed to be
A Bm
Everything they expect me to be
D
When I feel so alone,
Em A Bm
because I left my heart at home.
D Em A
She needs me, but I know they need me too.
Bm D Em A
So God, give me the strength to do what you created me to do.

Bm D
Really I'm so thankful for the people I meet,
Em A Bm
The places I've been and the things I've seen,
D Em
but when she's not here
A Bm
it doesn't feel like I'm living my dream.
D Em
I know they say that no one is perfect,
A Bm
but I swear she's perfect for me
D Em A
and that makes it so much harder to leave.
Bm D Em
How am I supposed to be
A Bm
Everything they expect me to be
D
When I feel so alone,
Em A Bm
because I left my heart at home.
D Em A
She needs me, but I know they need me too.
Bm D Em A Bm
So God, give me the strength to do what you created me to do.
D Em A
If you miss me, I'm just a phone call away.
Bm D Em A
Please be strong, be strong for me.
Bm D Em A
I need you to show me how to change the inside of me.
Bm D
For my heart, for their sake.
Em A
Be strong, be strong for me!
