Am7     Em7     G      D

[Verse 1]
Am7            Em7              G
Oh the dreaded fear has come to kill the fun
F                Em7                   G                   D
And everything I thought I learned has turned away and run
Am7                Em7                 G                  D
Peace, I need this peace tonight, I'll never know me well
        F                   G
Cause I locked my heart and swallowed the key

[Chorus]
D              G
Life has taken on my pride
D                A
Now even hope is hard to find
D               G
I only meant to love you truly
D                A                Am7     Em7     G     G
I never meant to hurt you deeply

[Verse 2]
Am7           Em7             G
Oh the silent warning bell, I know it well
F                  Em7                G                D
I see the shadows, close my eyes and pour the muscatel
Am7                 Em7               G                  D
Sleep, I'll let you sleep tonight, my hands are trembling
F                       G
 I stole your heart and cashed it in

[Chorus]
D              G
Life has taken on my pride
D                A
Now even hope is hard to find
D               G
I only meant to love you truly
D                A
I never meant to hurt you deeply

D                 G
And after all the things we've said
D                 A
I know it now, my heart's not dead
D               G
I only meant to love you truly
D                A
I never meant to hurt you deeply
