E5              B5
---No-one ever told your folks
F#5              A5
that stupid joke until this day,
E5                    B5
---I never stopped to see what broke,
  F#5                 A5
Your only thought was don't stop kicking
   E5     B5
away, away.
    F#5         A5
Your heart will lead you
  E5     B5
away, away.
        F#5     A5
But your heart won't know.

( E5  A5 )

E5                   B5
---Someone said the job you got
    F#5                   A5
will last you 'til you're old and grey,
E5                        B5
---She wrote the great american
  F#5             A5
napkin but she sold the rights
   E5    B5
away, away.
    F#5            A5
Your heart will lead you
   E5    B5
away, away.
         F#5       A5
But your heart won't know.

( E5  B5  F#5  A5 ) (2x)

E5               B5
---Every single heart can break,
     F#5                 A5
You'll break them all until the day,
E5                        B5
---You find yourself an honest joke,
  F#5          A5
a solid ??? place you can pass
   E5    B5
away, away.
      F#5         A5
Your heart will lead you
  E5     B5
away, away.
        F#5       A5
But your heart won't know.
