F C F Bb F


[Verse 1]
F                              Bb             F
I awakened this morning..I was filled with despair.
F                       Dm        G7   C7
All my dreams turned to ashes and gone.
     F                         Bb         F
As I looked at my life, it was barren and bare.
F                   C7         F
Without love, I had nothing at all.


[Chorus]
        C7          F
Without love, I had nothing..
        Bb          G7         C  C7
without love, I had nothing at all.
       F             F7             Bb              Bb7
I have conquered the world, all but one thing did I have.
        F           C7         F
Without love, I had nothing at all.


[Verse 2]
F                           Bb         F
Once I had a sweetheart who loved only me.
F                       Dm            G7   C7
There was nothing, that she would not give.
F                                   Bb          F
But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see..
F                    C7          F
that a heart without love cannot live.


[Chorus]
        C7          F
Without love, I had nothing..
        Bb          G7         C  C7
without love, I had nothing at all.
       F             F7             Bb              Bb7
I have conquered the world, all but one thing did I have.
        F           C7         F   Bb F
Without love, I had nothing at all.
