     Am          C             G        D Dsus D
 
 
Am      Em
Why do lovers drift apart
     C        G         D
And how does love fade away
Am      Em                  C     D    
When do pieces of a broken heart mend again
Am          Em
You've been crying in the dark
     C           G        D
And you've been feeling alone
Am        Em
Don't be scared of what you'll find
 C                 D
When you turn the light on
G                   D
Ain't nobody gonna say goodbye
    C                  D
No ain't nobody gonna walk away
G                   D               C         D
This time baby I'm learning how to love you, love you
G                   D
Ain't nobody gonna make you cry
    C                 D               Em   D/F#
No ain't nobody ever really tried to love you
        C    D   
Like I love you
Am        Em              C
What sad memory of yesterday
      G        D
What terrible scar
Am         Em              C        D             
Keeps you gathering pieces of your shattered heart
Am        Em
There was once upon a time
      C       G        D
When hope was living within
Am      Em
I know there will come a time
 C              D
When you can believe again

Ain't nobody gonna make you cry

Like I love you
