F#They used to say that boys are tough as nailsF#/Eb
In every way he Fkeeps his heart as guarded as a jail Bbm Ab
Now things have changed, I Ebmfeel so old F/Eb
Like anBb/Dy giEbrl could drag my heart acrAboss the coals Db
I was always there in the thick of things
I always had the heart of every woman on a string
The danger zone shone from my eyes
It seemed like every inch I gained became a mile

G/AIt'sA not the Dnight reaching in and touching mD+e
It's just that breaGking hearts ain't what it used to be Gm
It seems that time hDas killed that cruel streak in me B7
And breG/Eaking hearts ain't what it used to be G/A A G/A A
It's not the light shining in and catching me
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
But time has come and cast a spell on me {c:SECOND TIME GO TO THE BOTTOM SECTION}
And breG/Eaking hearts ain't what it used to be G/A A D
And now I know what lonely means
I used to give so little and gain everything
The darkest part of every day
Is the shadow of another girl as she turns and walks away
Can't say I blame them all for being hurt
After all I treated each and every one like dirt
Who wants a heart that's never home
I face the facts and lock myself into a life alone
