I would have given you all of my heart..
D           G             C        D   
but there's someone who's torn it apart.
          G             D             C   D
And she's taking almost all that I've got..
D                     G            D
but if you want, I'll try to love again..

Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed.
        G               C        D    C
When it comes to lovin' me she's worst.
            G              D           C
But when it comes to being loved she's first..

just to help me dry the tears that I've cried.
