Verse (as intro) 
 
E           A  
Walked out, goodbye 
E       A 
I swore I never would cry 
E           A  
Tore a page of my heart 
E            A 
She wants me to be her friend 
E      A  
I'm lonely again 
E                 A 
Tore a page of my heart 
 
 
Chorus 
 
E                         A        B  
Oh, tell me who wrote the book of love 
E               A     B 
Was it somebody from above 
(Ha, ha, ha) 
E                   A        B 
Surely he must know all the rules  
(Ha, ha, ha) 
E                       A       B 
Knowledge not meant for mortal fools 
E                      A     B 
Must have been someone from above 
E                      A        E  
Tell me, who wrote the book of love
