  			C 
Every night it's the same 
                       F 
I feel your heart turn cold as rain 
                        C 
And know that you'll be gone again 
G 
I hear the front door close 
C 
You say you got to go downtown 
                        F 
I guess there's someone else you've found 
                    C 
So why you're still coming round 
G            C 
Heaven only knows 
F                                            C 
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry 
F                 C 
Make me feel like I could die 
G 
That's the way it goes 
F 
Heaven only ever sees  
                  C 
How love's made a fool of me 
F                       C 
I guess that's how it's meant to be but  
G           C 
Heaven only knows 
C 
I've heard it said that talk is cheap 
                          F 
But still your words they cut so deep 
              C 
Lay me crying in my sleep 
G 
And the pain just grows 
C 
I don't know who's right or wrong 
                  F  
But all we had is dead and gone 
                   C 
So why you keep me hanging on 
G           C  
Heaven only knows 
F                                            C 
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry 
F                 C 
Make me feel like I could die 
G 
That's the way it goes 
F 
Heaven only ever sees  
                  C 
How love's made a fool of me 
F                       C 
I guess that's how it's meant to be but  
G           C 
Heaven only knows 
C 
I'm going to turn and walk away  
                         F 
There's nothing left for me to say 
                          C 
It wouldn't change things anyway 
G 
Though, I suppose 
C 
The love I gave was always true 
                        F  
Well, I don't know what else to do 
                      C 
And how I'll ever get over you 
G           C 
Heaven only knows 
F                                            C 
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry 
F                 C 
Make me feel like I could die 
G 
That's the way it goes 
F 
Heaven only ever sees  
                  C 
How love's made a fool of me 
F                       C 
I guess that's how it's meant to be but  
G           C 
Heaven only knows
