G            D                    G                     B7
   Take my hand for a while,        explain it to me        once again,
Em               Cm                 G    D
    just for the sake of my broken heart.

G          D            G                       B7
    Look into my eyes         and maybe I will         understand,
Em             Cm        G
    how love I counted        on was never there.
D             G      Em       A                  D        G
    You see,      I thought        that you might love me.

G           D                     G                        B7
   So you caught me, it seems,         off balance with a heart so full,
Em               Cm            G                        D
    of love and pretty dreams       that two should sha…re.

D             G     Em       A                        D  G
    And so,      I know,        but please before you go.
G            D                    G                     B7
   Take my hand for a while,        explain it to me        once again,
Em               Cm                 G
    just for the sake of my broken heart.
