[G]Heartache number one was when you, [C]left me.
I [D]never knew that I could hurt this [G]way.
And [G]heartache number two was when you, [C]came back again.
You [D]came back but never meant to [G]stay.

[N.C.]Yes, I've got [G]heartaches by the number, [C]troubles by the score,
[D]everyday you love me less, each day I love you [G]more.
[N.C.]Yes, I've got [G]heartaches by the number, a [C]love that I can't win,
but the [D]day that I stop counting, that's the day my world will [G]end.

[G]Heartache number three was when you, [C]called me.
And [D]said that you were coming back to [G]stay.
With [G]hopeful heart I waited for your, [C]knock on the door.
I [D]waited but you must have lost your [G]way.

but the [D]day that I stop counting, that's the day my world will [G]end.
But the [D]day that I stop counting, that's the day - my - world - will - [G]end.
