1.
C Am
Your love made a slave of me
Em Am
but the love you gave, you took away from me.
C Am
Foolishly, I believed in you.
Em Am
What a fool I was, thinking love was true.
F Am
Selfishly you broke my heart.
G Am
You really had me fooling from the start.
F Am
Still I have just one regret :
G Am
although you're gone, I can't forget.
C Em
Why when the love is gone,
Am F
why does my heart keep holding on ?
C Em
Oh why when the love is gone,
Am F
Tell me why does my heart keep holding on ?
2.
C Am
Your love was sweet when it started
Em Am
but now I find it leaves me broken hearted.
C Am
Why do you swear to always care
Em Am
then walk away and leave me in despair ?
F
Selfishly ...
