Intro
D Gm F Am A#
[Verse 1]
F Dm A# F
I once held her in my arms,
F Dm A# C
She said she would always stay.
D Gm
But I was cruel,
F Am A#
I treated her like a fool,
F A# F A#
I threw it all away.
[Chorus]
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
I must have been mad,
I never knew what I had,
Until I threw it all away.
[Bridge]
A# C F Dm
Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round,
A# C D
Love and only love, it can't be denied.
A# C
No matter what you think about it
F Am Dm
You just won't be able to do without it.
Eb A# C
Take a tip from one who's tried.
[Chorus 2]
So if you find someone that gives you all of her love,
Take it to your heart, don't let it stray,
For one thing that's certain,
You will surely be a-hurtin',
If you throw it all away
F C F
If you throw it all away.
