   Intro: G-Em-G-Em,D pause

  G
   Why do people fall in love
                       Em-D-
   And they end up crying
  G                   Em
   Why do lovers walk away from themselves
              Bm
   When their hearts are breaking
  C                         D
   Why does loving sometimes never stay long
  C
   Why does kissing this time
     D
   Mean you'll be gone
  C                 Am
   Why does gladness become sadness
  C            Am       D-break
   Things that I don't get

                Chorus
  G                        Em
   Someone's always saying goodbye
                  D            C
   I believe it hurts when we cry
             Bm            Am         D
   Don't we know parting's never so easy
  G                          Em
   And with all the achings inside
                     D           C
   I believe some hearts won't survive
           Bm         Am
   Trying hard to pretend
               D         G
   That we're gonna be fine

   Interlude: G-Em-G-Em,D pause

  G
   I could never really love
                    Em-D-
   Someone else but you
  G                      Em
   I have never wanted anything else
          Bm
   But a love so true
  C
   But just like a dream
          D
   That comes in the night
  C                       D
   In the morning you were out of my sight
  C
   Turned away from me
  Am
   Sadly as I see
  C            Am       D
   Away from where I stand

   (Repeat Chorus)
