Rhythm tips ↓-↓↓↑

Ooh, [G7]this old [C]heart of mine, been broke a [Em]thousand times, Each time you [F]break away, [Em7]fear you’ve [Dm7]gone to stay. [G7]Lonely [C]nights that come, memo[Em]ries that flow, Bringing you [F]back again, [Em]hurting me [Dm7]more and [Em7]more.

[Dm7]Maybe it’s [G]my mistake, to [Em]show this love I feel in[Am7]side. [Dm7]’Cos each day that [G]passes by; You’ve [Dm7]got me never [Em]knowing if I’m [F]coming or [G]going. But I,

[C]I love you,[Em]this old [F]heart [Em]darling, is [Dm7]weak for [G7]you. [C]I love you,[Em]yes I [F]do,[Em]yes I [Dm7]do. [G7]These old [C]arms of mine miss having [Em]you around, Make these [F]tears inside, [Em7]starts [Dm7]falling [Em7]down.

[Dm7]Always with [G]half a kiss, you re[Em]mind me of what I [Am7]miss. [Dm7]Though I try to con[G]trol myself, Like a [Dm7]fool I start [Em]grinning ‘cos my [F]head starts [G]spinning, ‘cos I,

[C]I love you,[Em]this old [F]heart [Em]darling, is [Dm7]weak for [G7]you. [C]I love you,[Em]yes I [F]do,[Em]yes I [Dm7]do. [G7]These old [C]arms of mine miss having [Em]you around, Make these [F]tears inside, [Em7]starts [Dm7]falling [Em7]down.

[G7]I try hard to hide my [Em]hurt inside, This old [F]heart of mine always [Em7]keep me [Dm7]crying. [G7]The way you’re [C]treating me leaves me [Em]incomplete, You’re [F]here for the day, [Em]gone [Dm7]for the [Em7]week.

[Dm7]But if you leave me a [G]hundred times, A [Em]hundred times, I’ll take you [Am7]back. [Dm7]I’m yours when[G]ever you want me, I’m not [Dm7]too proud to [Em]shout it, [F]tell the world a[G]bout it, ‘cos I,

[C]I love you,[Em]this old [F]heart [Em]darling, is [Dm7]weak for [G7]you. [C]I love you,[Em]yes I [F]do,[Em]yes I [Dm7]do. [G7]These old [C]arms of mine miss having [Em]you around, Make these [F]tears inside, [Em7]starts [Dm7]falling [Em7]down.

Ooh, [G7]this old [C]heart of mine, been broke a [Em]thousand times, Each time you [F]break away, [Em7]fear you’ve [Dm7]gone to stay. [G7]Lonely [C]nights that come, memo[Em]ries that flow, Bringing you [F]back again, [Em]hurting me [Dm7]more and [Em7]more.

[Dm7]Maybe it’s [G]my mistake, to [Em]show this love I feel in[Am7]side. [Dm7]’Cos each day that [G]passes by; You’ve [Dm7]got me never [Em]knowing if I’m [F]coming or [G]going. But I,

[C]I love you,[Em]this old [F]heart [Em]darling, is [Dm7]weak for [G7]you. [C]I love you,[Em]yes I [F]do,[Em]yes I [Dm7]do. [G7]These old [C]arms of mine miss having [Em]you around.
