   E                 A              E
No one will ever know my heart is breaking,
   B7       B       B7                  E
although a million teardrops start to flow
                        A              E
I'll try myself to sleep and wake up smiling,
   B7       B     B7              E
I miss you but no one will ever know

      B7                             E
I'll tell them we grew tired of each other,
     F#           F#7                B7  B
and realized our dreams could never be
     E                A         E
I'll even make believe I never loved you,
     B7          B     B7                 E
then no one will ever know the truth but me

      B7                             E
I'll tell them we grew tired of each other,
    F#           F#7                B7  B
and realized our dreams could never be
     E                A         E
I'll even make believe I never loved you,
     B7           B    B7                 E
then no one will ever know the truth but me
