A7            D         G       A

  Dmaj7                    G
  I was always thinking of games that I was playing
  Dmaj7                         G
  Trying to make the best of my time

    A7       Gmaj7               F♯m7
    But only love can break your heart
              Em                  A
    Try to be sure right from the start
    A7       Gmaj7               F♯m7
    Yes only love can break your heart
                 Em                 A
    What if your world should fall apart?

A7  D  G  A  x 2
                
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream

A7

  Someone should call him and see if he can come out
  Try to lose the down that he's found
       
    Refrain

A7  D  G  A  x 2
                
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream

Yes, only love can break your heart  x 4
