A minorAm
This time her mind is made up
FF
Yeah, she's moving on
A minorAm
Tonight her spirit's crushed
FF
It's 'cause she don't belong
C majorC
Maybe she thinks too much
G+G
She thinks she's given enough
FF A minorAm E minor 7Em7
Only now they'll know she's got a heart of gold
A minorAm
Always looking for love
FF
She's beginning to think she's cursed
A minorAm
On her looks she judged
FF
By the folks at work
C majorC
She don't care for fashion and fame
G+G
Those kind of people they are all the same
FF A minorAm
One day they'll know, she's got a heart of gold
FF G+G
And she sings, I want to know what love is
E minorEm A minorAm
But it seems to come with so much pain
FF G+G
If no one wants to show me
E7E7 A minorAm
It seems easier just to run away
FF Dm7/A E MajorE A minorAm
When I am gone it's just a penny for my soul
FF E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minor 7Em7
But God he knows, I got a heart of gold
A minorAm
Been coming 'round here
FF
Since she's a little girl
A minorAm
But now the change is clear
FF
We live in a cynical world
C majorC
She don't care for fashion and fame, no
G+G
Those kind of people they are all the same
FF A minorAm
They don't wanna know, she's got a heart of gold
FF G+G
And she sings, I want to know what love is

But it seems to come with so much pain
FF G+G
If no one wants to show me
E7E7 A minorAm
It seems easier just to run away
FF Dm7/A E MajorE A minorAm
When I am gone it's just a penny for my soul
FF E minor 7Em7
But God he knows, I got a heart of gold
Bridge - Dm, Am, Dm, Am, DmDm
A minorAm E MajorE
To see her footsteps in the snow
FF G+G
And she sings, I want to know what love is

E7E7 A minorAm
It seems easier just to run away
