[Verse 1]
[Emaj7]I can think of younger days when living for my life
[F#m]Was everything a ma[Emaj7]n could want to do
[Ab]I could never see t[C#m]omorrow
[F#]But I was never told a[B]bout the sorrow
[Cborus 1]
[Emaj7]And how can you mend a broken heart?
[F#m]How can you stop the rain from falling down?
Tell me [A]how can you [B]stop[A] the sun from [B]shining?
[A]What makes the [Abm]world [F#m]go rou[Emaj7]nd?
[Cborus 2]
[Emaj7]How can you mend this broken man?
[F#m]How can a loser ever win?
Somebody please [A]help me [B]mend my [A]broken [B]hear[A]t and let me [Abm]live [F#m]again[Emaj7]
[Bridge]
La La La [F#m]Laaaa [Emaj7]La
[Verse 2]
[Emaj7]I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
[F#m]And misty memories of days gone [Emaj7]by
[Ab]We could never see [C#m]tomorrow
Would you believe [F#]that no one
No one said a word [B]about the sorrow
[Cborus 1]
So [Emaj7]how can you mend a broken heart?(and mine is)
[F#m]How can you stop the rain from falling down?
[A]How can you [B]stop[A] the sun from [B]shining?
[A]What makes the [Abm]world [F#m]go ro[Emaj7]und?(and sometime I have to say, yeah)
