CAPO 1  
INTRO: C  Am  F G 
 
 
VERSE: 
 
        C             Am 
Looking back over the years 
   F                   G               C 
Of all the things I've always meant to say 
        Am                F 
But the words didn't come easily 
G       C                   Am 
So many times through empty fears 
   F                G                    C 
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone 
   Am                     F 
So scared of who might be answering 
F   G                G/B              C 
You try to live your life from day to day 
    F      G     F                Am                  G 
But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away 
 

 
Refrão -------------
           C     Am    F 
'Cause the heart won't lie 
          Dm               G 
Sometimes life gets in the way 
            C                    Am 
But there's one thing that won't change 
        F            G 
I know, I've tried 
    C     Am    F 
The heart won't lie 
        Dm        G 
You can live your alibi 
        C               Am            F              Am F G 
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise 
                C     Am F G 
The heart won't lie

VERSE: 
 
C          Am 
Long after tonight 
     F                 G 
Will you still hear my voice? 
            C         Am                  F 
Through the radio old desires make us act carelessly 
G           C 
 Long after tonight 
          Am             F               G/B 
After the fire after the scattered ashes fly 
                       C         Am 
Through the four winds blown and gone 
              F            G 
Will you come back to me? 
F   G                G/B              C 
You try to live your life from day to day 
    F      G     F                Am                  G 
But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away
