INTRO: G

F       C     F       C
Love is dead. Love is dead,
    C                     F         G 
but I still can't get her out of my head,
   F         C    F        C 
so she'll be gone from now on and 
C       G        F               C
I'll regret everything I've ever done.
    F 
She wasn't coming close to 
F                        C
what she was supposed to do.
   F 
It really doesn't matter, 
F
still there's not a sadder 
D               G
lie than I love you.
        C           F   
Singing la la la la love is dead 
C           F
la la la la love is dead 
               C           E          F
that's why I'm sighing and crying and shaking my head
C    G  C
love is dead.
F       C    F       C
Love is sad. Life is bad
C                           F          G 
when you can't get what you could have had. 
F        C     F          C
Days are blue, nights are black.
C      G           F                C 
I'd do anything if I could have her back, 
F 
but I'm just a sap and 
F                     C
it's not gonna happen now.
F  
It's cold dark and stormy 
F
and there's nothing for me 
D            G
out there anyhow.
        C           F   
Singing la la la la love is dead 
C           F
la la la la love is dead 
               C           E      F
that's why I'm crying and lying awake in my bed
C    G  C
love is dead.
F         G#
Emotional vertigo
    C                 F           C 
was never supposed to happen this time, 
F               G#
but if she ever were to go back to 
C                  F          C
me there's nowhere I wouldn't climb.
          Am                   Am(add9)
Still out on this limb there's only me, 
  Am7             D7
a damaged dim and lonely me, 
G#             A#   C
stepping on my own toes
        G#              A#   G
while I rattle my chain of woes.
