Key: Eb

 -1*  -2   3   3  -3*  3*
Can’t you see, I love you, 
  3*     4    -3*  4   -3*  3*  3 
Please don’t break my heart in two. 
 -3*    4   -3* 3* 3
That’s not hard to do, 
   3  -3*  3*   3*  3  -2  -3*  3
’Cause I don’t have a wood-en heart. 
-1* -2  3   3  -3*   3*
And if you say Good-bye, 
 3*  4  -3*  4  -3*  3*   3
Then I know that I would cry, 
-3* 4 -3*  3*   3
May-be I would die, 
   3  -3*  3*   3*  3  -2  3   -1*
’Cause I don’t have a wood-en heart. 

  -1*   3    -2    3  3*  -2   3   3* -3*
There’s no strings up-on this love of mine. 
-3*-3* 4   4   -5*  -5   5   -3*
It was al-ways you from the start. 
 -1*  -2   3      3  -3*  3*
Treat me nice.  Treat me good. 
  3*  4   -3*  4  -3*  3*   3
Treat me like you real-ly should, 
   3   -3*  4  -3*  3*  3 
’Cause I’m not made of wood 
 3 -3*  3*   3*  3  -2  3   -1*  
And I don’t have a wood-en heart
