A		    D 
I had somebody, somebody who loved me  
E                  A 
Someone so good to me  
A		       D 
You were my angel, you were my heaven  
E			     A 
But I was too blind to see  
 
F#             D 
I let you slip away 
E               A  
I guess I never knew  
F#         D 
I had the world with you  
       Bm 		 	     D 
I?d be there, still be there in your arms  
 
Chorus: 
Dm            A                                    D 
If not for my careless heart you?d still be loving me  
Dm            A				   C#m  E  
If not for my careless heart you?d still be mine  
  A                  F#m             
I wouldn?t have this hurt inside  
  D                   Dm  
I wouldn?t have these tears to cry  
              A                             E 
If not for my careless heart, if not for my careless heart  
 
I had my chances, I took advantage  
I took it all too far  
So now you?re gone and I?m all alone  
Alone with my lonely heart  
 
I let it fall apart  
I didn?t care enough  
I lost your precious love  
You?d be here, you?d be here in my arms  
 
Chorus  
 
Dm                 A7 
I?d be loving you, I?d be holding you  
Dm            E 
I?d be loving you 
              A  
If not for my careless heart  
 
Solo and Chorus
