[verse 1]

      Bb majorBb   Cm/BbCm/Bb
 They say time
      Cdim/Bb Bb majorBb
 heals the broken  heart
     Bb majorBb  Cm/BbCm/Bb
 days go by
     Cdim/Bb  Bb majorBb
 and the healing  starts

 They say life,

 life goes on

 I can't sleep

 I can't give
     EbM7   Eb6Eb6
 I don't seem to be able
    Bb2/D    Bb/DBb/D
 to get back on my feet

     EbM7  Eb6Eb6
 I can't run
     Bb2/D G minorGm

in- side

 oh have mercy baby

 I had love
    Cdim/Bb   Bb majorBb
 but it turned out wrong

 I had faith
     Cdim/Bb Bb majorBb
 and when that was gone
     G minorGm   F/GF/G
 well at least,
     Cm/G G minorGm
 at least I had hope
Cm7/F
 when you left me hanging
    Cm7/F
 at the end of my road
