  Guy Mitchell  
  Written by Harlan Howard  
    
  Peaked at # 1 in 1959  
  Remake by Johnny Tillotson

  INTRO:  
    
  CHORUS  
  Heartaches by the  
 number, troubles by the score  
  Everyday you love me less,  
 each day I love you more  
  Yes, I`ve got heartaches by the  
 number, a love that I can`t win  
  But the day that I stop  
 countin`, that`s the day my world will end  
    
  Heartache number one  
 was when you left me  
  I never knew that  
 I could hurt this way  
  And heartache number two  
 was when you *come* back again  
  You came back  
 but never meant to stay  
    
  Yes, I`ve got  
  CHORUS  
    
  `  
  Heartache number three  
 was when you called me  
  And said that you  
 were comin` back to stay  
  With hopeful heart I waited  
 for your knock on the door  
  I waited but you  
 must have lost your way  
    
  Yes, I`ve got  
  CHORUS  
    
  TRANSCRIBER`S NOTE: *come*: logic and English  
 grammar dictate that this should be `came`,  
  as in the next line,  
 but Mitchell clearly DOES sing `come.`
