My[G] heart is[D] low , my[Em] heart is so low,,[G]
As[G] only a[D] woman's heart can[Em] be,,[C]
As[G] only a wo[D]man , as[Em] only a wo[C]man
As[G] only a wo[D]man's heart can[C] be,,[G]
 
The[G] tears that drip[D] from be[Em]wildered[C] eyes
Taste of[D] bittersweet ro[Em]mance,,[C]
You[G]r still in my[D] hopes , your[Em] still on my[C] mind
Oh[G] and even though[D] I manage[Em] on my[C] own,,[G]
 
When restless eyes reveal my troubled soul
And the memories flood my weary heart
I morne for my dreams I morne for my wasted love
And while I know that I'll survive alone 
[Chorus by 2]
