Intro: F   F   A   A   A#  A#  C# D#

F
  Love can be a many splendored thing
A
  Can't deny the joy it brings
A#
  A dozen roses, diamond rings
C#                         D#
Dreams for sale and fairy tales
F
  It'll make you hear a symphony
A
  And you just want the world to see
A#
  But like a drug that makes you blind
C
 It'll fool you every time

Chorus:
                  F
The trouble with love is
        A
It can tear you up inside
           A#
Make your heart believe a lie
        C#
It's stronger than your pride
      D#          F
The trouble with love is
            A
It doesn't care how fast you fall
         A#
And you can't refuse the call
             C#                D#
See, you've got no say at all, oh

F
  Now I was once a fool, it's true
A
  I played the game by all the rules
A#
  But now my world's a deeper blue
C#                       D#
 I'm sad, but I'm wiser too
F
  I swore I'd never love again
A
  I swore my heart would never mend
A#
  Said love wasn't worth the pain
C
But then I hear it call my name

Chorus:
                  F
The trouble with love is
        A
It can tear you up inside
           A#
Make your heart believe a lie
        C#
It's stronger than your pride
      D#          F
The trouble with love is
            A
It doesn't care how fast you fall
         A#
And you can't refuse the call
             C#                D#
See, you've got no say at all

A
  Every time I turn around
Dm
 I think I've got it all figured out
 A
My heart keeps calling and I keep on falling
Dm
Over and over again
D#
  This sad story always ends the same
A#
  Me standing in the pouring rain
Bm
  It seems no matter what I do
    C
It tears my heart in two

Chorus:
F
  (The trouble with love is)
  The trouble with love, yeah
A
  (It can tear you up inside)
  It can tear you up inside
A#
  (Make your heart believe a lie)
  Make your heart believe a lie
C#                        D#
It's stronger than your pride

                     F
  (The trouble with love is)
  It's in your heart
  It's in your soul
            A
  (Doesn't care how fast you fall)
  You won't get no control
            A#
  (And you can't refuse the call)
               C#
  See, you've got no say at all
         D#          F
  (The trouble with love is) Oh, yeah
           A
  (It can tear you up inside)
              A#
  (Make your heart believe a lie)
