[G#] Heartaches by the number [C#] troubles by the score

[G#] Heartache number one was when you [C#] left me
I [D#] never knew that I'd could hurt this [G#] way

With hopeful heart I waited for your [C#] knock on the door
I [D#] waited but you must have lost your [G#] way [G# open]
Yes, I've got...

REPEAT CHORUS: (ending: [G#] [C#] [G# open])
