Intro:
D A G A
D A G

Verse:
 A\t\t D\t  A G
I used to say "I love you"
  A       G  A G
It wasn't really true
 A\t   D\t   A G
I wanted to believe it
  A\t\t G  A G
And now I almost do

 A       D\t  A G
I used to say "I love you"
 A\t    G   A G
I said it as a threat
  A\t   D\t   A G
Or maybe as a promise
  A\t      G  A G
To see what I could get

Chorus:
A   D\t   Dmaj7  C\t  G
But my heart doesn't break anymore
   D\t\t  Dmaj7  C\t  G
No my heart doesn't ache anymore
\t Em\t\tD\tC
'Cause it just couldn't take anymore
     D-F#m\t   G\t   E7
And I've lost  my illusions about you now

Verse:
 \t\t D\t  A G
I used to say "I love you"
  A       G   A G
It wasn't what I meant
A       D     A G
What I really meant was
 A\t    G\tA G
"Come on in my tent"

A \t    D\tA G
But you were reluctant
 A        G\tA G
Although I was so hot
A\t  D\t  A G
Now I understand it
  A\t\t  G\tA G
But back then I did not

Chorus:
A   D\t   Dmaj7  C\t  G
But my heart doesn't wear anymore
   D\t\t  Dmaj7  C\t  G
No my heart doesn't care anymore
     Em\t   D\t    C
'Cause my heart isn't there anymore
     D-F#m\t  G\t   E7
And I've lost my illusions about you now

Verse:
          D\t  A G
And now if I should see you
  A\t      G\t  A G
Or call you on the phone (mm-hmm)
 A\t\t  D\t  A G
I wonder who's that person
    A       G\t  A G
I could never call my own

 A \t\t  D\t  A G
Although I kind of like you
   A\t    G   A G
I'll never understand
  A     D   A G
Why I got so excited
   A         G  A G
Each time that we held hands

Chorus:
     D\t    Dmaj7  C  G
'Cause my heart doesn't feel anymore
   D\t\t  Dmaj7  C\t  G
No my heart doesn't wheel anymore
\t Em\t   D\t   C
'Cause it just isn't real anymore
     D-F#m\t   G    E7
And I've lost  my illusions about you now
