Lyrics

B e f# g#m f#
No, you don't know
B e f# g#m f#
It makes no sense
B e f# g#m f#
And there goes
B e f# g#m f#
Your confidence
E
You were so understanding
F#
So sure of yourself
G#m
But when love became damaged
C#m
You ran for help
F# b e b
How can you give up on love - oh
F# b e b
How can you give up on love so soon
F# b e b
How can you give up on love this time
E b g#m f#
You ought to know love is hard to find

Steady b e f# g#m f#
Hold your breath b e f# g#m f#
It isn't b e f# g#m f#
Over yet b e f# g#m f#
So with one small admission e
Your paying the price f#
Did you tell yourself lying was g#m
Good advice c#m

How can you give up on love f# b e b
How can you give up on love so soon f# b e b
How can you give up on love this time f# b e b
You ought to know love is hard to find e b g#m f#

It's not easy to tell where e
Security lies f#
Is it stupid to trust in g#m
The look in her eyes c#m

How can you give up on love f# b e b
How can you give up on love so soon f# b e b
How can you give up on love this time f# b e b
You ought to know love is hard to find e b g#m f#
