"Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" Lyrics

Suzy Bogguss & Chet Atkins

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you're not there.

What have I got to do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over
Sorry, seems to be the hardest word.

It's sad, so sad, it's a sad, sad situation
And it's gettin' more and more absurb
It's sad, so sad, why can't we talk it over
Always seems to me
Sorry, seems to be the hardest word.

--- Chet Atkins Instrumental ---

It's sad, so sad, it's a sad, sad situation
And it's gettin' more and more absurb
It's sad, so sad, why can't we talk it over
Always seems to me
Sorry, seems to be the hardest word.

What have I got to do to make you love me
Oh, what have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
What have I got to do?
What have I got to do
Sorry, seems to be the hardest word...
