C
Every night it's the same
F
I feel your heart turn cold as rain
C
And know that you'll be gone again
G
I hear the front door close
C
You say you got to go downtown
F
I guess there's someone else you've found
C
So why you're still coming round
G C
Heaven only knows
F C
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
F C
Make me feel like I could die
G
That's the way it goes
F
Heaven only ever sees
C
How love's made a fool of me
F C
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
G C
Heaven only knows
C
I've heard it said that talk is cheap
F
But still your words they cut so deep
C
Lay me crying in my sleep
G
And the pain just grows
C
I don't know who's right or wrong
F
But all we had is dead and gone
C
So why you keep me hanging on
G C
Heaven only knows
F C
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
F C
Make me feel like I could die
G
That's the way it goes
F
Heaven only ever sees
C
How love's made a fool of me
F C
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
G C
Heaven only knows
C
I'm going to turn and walk away
F
There's nothing left for me to say
C
It wouldn't change things anyway
G
Though, I suppose
C
The love I gave was always true
F
Well, I don't know what else to do
C
And how I'll ever get over you
G C
Heaven only knows
F C
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
F C
Make me feel like I could die
G
That's the way it goes
F
Heaven only ever sees
C
How love's made a fool of me
F C
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
G C
Heaven only knows
