              Intro  Am Dm Am 
G F G Am 
 
Am 
Fallin tears, a broken heart 
Dm                      Am 
Here I sit as time goes by 
      G             F 
Cause all I had has gone forever 
G              Am 
Cant stand the night 
 
Am 
The fun we had, I knew so well 
     Dm                   Am 
That somethin so deep inside 
    G                  F 
The last few days have been pure hell 
G              Am 
Cant stand the night 
 
Am Dm Am 
G F G Am 
 
Am 
Love, you tore my world apart 
    Dm              Am 
But still I cant escape 
    G                  F 
You touched me and you hold me 
    G                  Am 
The nights are hard to take 
 
Am 
I know her body, her hair, her eyes 
Dm                          Am 
I know she should belong to me 
           G        F 
But shes a one mans girl forever 
G                    Am 
Lovin deeply why not me 
 
 
         C    G 
Love why do I take you 
    Dm              Am 
And why do you take me 
        C 
Take my breath 
   G           Am 
Or you take my heart 
 
        C       G 
All you give is pain 
Dm                Am 
A curse upon your name 
         C           G 
Cant you see it isnt right 
F              Am 
Cant stand the night 
 
Am 
Tell me where I have gone wrong 
Dm               Am 
Give me a reason why 
G              F    
Tell me how to win her back 
G              Am 
Cant stand the night 
 
         C    G

Fallin tears, a broken heart 
Dm                      Dm 
Here I sit as time goes by 
      G             F 
Cause all I had has gone forever 
G              Am 
Cant stand the night 
 
Am 
Oceans filled with tears 
Dm                    Am 
And mountains made of pain 
    G           F 
And my eyes are sad each time 
    G                   Am 
The night it comes back again 
 
         C    G 
Love why do I take you 
    Dm              Am 
And why do you take me 
        C 
Take my breath 
   G           Am 
Or you take my heart 
 
        C       G 
All you give is pain 
Dm                Am 
A curse upon your name 
         C           G      
Cant you see it isnt right 
F 
Oh-oh-oh 
 
         C    G 
Love why do I take you 
    Dm              Am 
And why do you take me 
        C 
Take my breath 
   G           Am 
Or you take my heart 
 
        C       G 
All you give is pain 
Dm                Am 
A curse upon your name 
         C    
Cant you see
