C  Am  F

[Verse]
        C             Am
Looking back over the years
   F                   G               C
Of all the things I've always meant to say
        Am                F        G
But the words didn't come easily
        C                   Am
So many times through empty fears
   F                G                    C
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
   Am                     F           G
So scared of who might be answering
    C                Am               F
You try to live your life from day to day
    G          C               Am     F              G
But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away

[Chorus]
                       C     Am
'Cause the heart won't lie
          F                G
Sometimes life gets in the way
            C                    Am
But there's one thing that won't change
        F            G
I know, I've tried
                C     Am
The heart won't lie
        F         G
You can live your alibi
        C               Am           F        G
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
                C     Am  F  G
The heart won't lie

[Verse]
C          Am
Long after tonight
     F                 G
Will you still hear my voice?
            C         Am                  F            G
Through the radio old desires make us act carelessly
           C
Long after tonight
          Am             F               G
After the fire after the scattered ashes fly
                       C         Am
Through the four winds blown and gone
              F             G
Will you come back to me?
    C                Am               F
You try to live your life from day to day
    G          C               Am     F              G
But seeing you across the room tonight just gives me away

[Chorus]
                       C     Am
'Cause the heart won't lie
          F                G
Sometimes life gets in the way
            C                    Am
But there's one thing that won't change
        F            G
I know, I've tried
                C     Am
The heart won't lie
        F         G
You can live your alibi
        C               Am           F        G
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
                C     Am  F  G
The heart won't lie

[Outro]
C  Am  F  G
                C
The heart won't lie
