[Verse]
A                E
 I play the song, it was our own
F                        C
 Your photograph's by my side
A                  D
 I know I can't forget you
B                E
 So I don't even try


[Verse]
A                 E
 The note you left is in my hand
F                      C
 I read again what you say
A                     D
 You're sorry but you love him
B                      E
 And you've both gone away


[Chorus
            A          D
This is the story of a man
      C#                F#m
Whose world has fallen apart
Faug         A/E
And it's the story
        E         |  A  |  %  |
That is breaking my heart
                  (break)


[Verse]
A                           E
 An open fire, our favorite chair
F                      C
 I get a book from the shelf
A                   D
 But the words I am reading
B                 E
 Could apply to myself


[Chorus
            A          D
This is the story of a man
      C#                F#m
Whose world is falling apart
Faug         A/E
And it's the story
        E         |  A  |  %  |
That is breaking my heart
