[Em]”Never look [D]back,” we [G]said, [Am]how was I to [C]know I’d [D]miss you [G]so [Em]Loneliness [D]up [G]ahead, [Am]emptiness be[C]hind where [D]do I [G]go? And [Em]you didn’t hear all my joy through my tears All my hopes through my fears did you [A]know, still I [Am]miss you some[D]how.

From the [G]bottom of my broken [D]heart, there’s just a [Em]thing or two I’d like you to [D]know You were my [C]first love, you were my [Bm]true love, from the first [Am]kisses to the very last [D]rose. From the [G]bottom of my broken [D]heart, even though [Em]time may find me somebody [D]new You were my [C]real love, I never [Bm]knew love, ’til there was [Am]you from the [D]bottom of my broken [G]heart.

[Em]”Baby,” I [D]said, “please [G]stay, [Am]give our love a [C]chance for [D]one more [G]day” [Em]We could have [D]worked things [G]out, [Am]taking time is [C]what love’s [D]all a[G]bout. But [Em]you put a dart through my dreams Through my heart and I’m back where I started a[A]gain, never [Am]thought it would [D]end

You [Em]promised yourself but to somebody else And you made it so perfectly [A]clear, still I [Am]wish you were [D]here. [Em]”Never look [D]back,” we [G]said [Am]How was I to [C]know I’d [D]miss you [G]so?
