  			G        G7                  C 
For y-ou my heart was always open 

        G                                   D7 
But you walked out and this loneliness came in 

         G                G7             C 
What I'd give to know the future now and then 

     G                    D7                 G 
If a heart must be broken why let the loving begin 


           G7                C 
For y-ou a treasure became a token 

          G                              D7 
I lost it all for a love that might have been 

         G                G7             C 
What I'd give to know the future now and then 

     G                    D7                 G 
If a heart must be broken why let the loving begin 


     C             D7                       G 
They say the heart sometimes will cloud the mind 

    C                 G      D7 
And nothing stands to reason when a love is blind 

        G               G7            C 
But the truth is always harder in the end 

     G                    D7                 G 
If a heart must be broken why let the loving begin 


     C             D7                       G 
They say the heart sometimes will cloud the mind 

    C                 G      D7 
And nothing stands to reason when a love is blind 

        G               G7            C 
But the truth is always harder in the end 

     G                    D7                 G 
If a heart must be broken why let the loving begin 


                          G7             C 
What I'd give to know the future now and then 

     G                    D7                 G 
If a heart must be broken why let the loving begin
