G                                          Em
She's telling everyone we're through..now, I don't know 

what I'll do.
  C                                D
I cried so much, my eyes are sore..I never felt like this 

before.

BRIDGE:
C                                     G
What happens when your love has gone..what happens when 

dreams have ended?
A                                           D
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do 

you do?

#2.
G                                     Em
I tried to call her on the phone..her mother said she wasn't 

home.
C                          D
I wonder where she can be..why did she do this to me?

BRIDGE:
C                                     G
What happens when your love has gone..what happens when 

dreams have ended?
A                                           D
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do 

you do?

#3.
       C                                           Em
You're all mixed up and your head's in a whirl..do you go 

out and try to find another girl?
C                                     D
Can you find one that will be true..I just don't know, since 

we are through.

#4.
G                                 Em
Now, you heard what I had to say..so, I guess I'll be on 

my way.
C                             D
I really have no place to go..I must be boring you, I know.

BRIDGE:
     C                                            G
But, that's what happens when your love has gone..that's what 

happens when your dreams have ended.
A                                           D
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do 

you do?

CHORUS:
           G                           Em
Diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
           C                           D
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
(Gee-wah-wah..gee-wah-wah..)
