[Verse 1]
Am7 Em7 G
Oh the dreaded fear has come to kill the fun

And everything I thought I learned has turned away and run
Am7 Em7 G D
Peace, I need this peace tonight, I'll never know me well
F G
Cause I locked my heart and swallowed the key
[Chorus]

I only meant to love you truly
D A Am7 Em7 G G
I never meant to hurt you deeply

Am7 Em7 G
Oh the silent warning bell, I know it well

Am7 Em7 G D
Sleep, I'll let you sleep tonight, my hands are trembling
F G
I stole your heart and cashed it in
[Chorus]

Life has taken on my pride
D A
Now even hope is hard to find

I only meant to love you truly
D A
I never meant to hurt you deeply
