Key: C
Introduction:
Am G F
It occured to me at once that love could be a great illusion,
Am G F
that makes fools of brilliant thinkers everyday.
Am G
And sends hearts of stone and steel,
F
to a place where they would feel like they,
Dm G C
were falling, falling quickly in its way.
Dm C G
Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun,
Dm C G
When all this time you had no one to tell you how to love?
Dm C G
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
Dm C
When all this time you didn't know love, you didn't know love,
G Dm C
You didn't know love, You didn't know love...
Am G F
It occurred to me at once that love gets everything it asks for,
Am G F
Like a young girl picking flowers in the lawn.
Am G F
She gets every kiss and tear, she gets every smile and fear, but still,
Dm G C
She never finds the last of them is gone, oh
Dm G C
She never finds the last of them is gone
Chorus: 3x
Dm C G
Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun,
Dm C G
When all this time you had no one to tell you how to love?
Dm C G
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
Dm C
When all this time you didn't know love, you didn't know love,
G Dm C
You didn't know love, You didn't know love...
