Capo First Fret
F# B
B F#
The love that faded left me only tears
B
Days that were happy turned into lonely years
E B
Vows that we made turned into lies
F# B F#
My life is empty, my lonely heart cries
B F#
I tried to forget that we'll never be
B
Nothing left for me but dust in the breeze
E B
My way is lonely but I think I'm lost
F# B F#
My love was wasted, I'm paying the cost
B F#
Brown eyes, blue eyes they're all the same
B
None are for me, I've lost their game
E B
Tomorrow has nothing but worries and cares
F# B F#
The love that faded left me only tears
B F#
Just like the rose your love faded away
B
Now my lonely heart must break and pay
E B
Nothing now but heartaches through years
F# B F#
The love that faded left me only tears
