Any comments, changes, or suggestions are very welcome. Please email me at: ward_m@denison.edu Thanks. --Mark note: Capo on 1st fret ... The song is really in the key of Db, not C. Intro: C Am F C Am Looking back over the years F G C Of all the things I've always meant to say Am F G But the words didn't come easily C Am So many times through empty fears F G C Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone Am F G So scared of who might be answering C Am F You try to live your life from day to day G C Am F G But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away chorus: C Am 'Cause the heart won't lie F G Sometimes life gets in the way C Am But there's one thing that won't change F G I know, I've tried C Am The heart won't lie F G You can live your alibi C Am F G Look and see--you're lost inside a foolish disguise C Am F G The heart won't lie C Am Long after tonight F G Will you still hear my voice? C Am F G Through the radio old desires make us act carelessly C Long after tonight Am F G After the fire after the scattered ashes fly C Am Through the four winds blown and gone F G Will you come back to me? C Am F You try to live your life from day to day G C Am F G But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away chorus: C Am 'Cause the heart won't lie F G Sometimes life gets in the way C Am But there's one thing that won't change F G I know, I've tried C Am The heart won't lie F G You can live your alibi C Am F G Look and see--you're lost inside a foolish disguise C Am F G The heart won't lie C Am F G C The heart won't lie
