      A         |  B                   |  E    |  E  | 
      hopeless romantics, here we go again.

               A       |  B                 |  E    |  Absus4 Ab7  | 
      it's those restless hearts that never mend.

      B7              |  B7                   |  C#m      | 
      but night after night you're willing to hold her,
