Wall Around Your Heart

[Intro] C  Am  F  Dm  C

  C                  Am          Dm              C
I once had a darling sweetheart, and I loved her so
                    Am           D7                G
Loved her more than I could ever let my poor heart show
C                 Am           Dm             C
She went away and left me, she found somebody else
                Am                Dm      F    C
Left me here in this old world to cry all to myself

                  Am   Dm                C
Stone must be the wall built around your heart
                 Am               D7            G
I still love you darling, but the time has come to part
Continues after the ad
C               Am               Dm                  C
No more sorrow, no more pain can enter this heart of mine
                   Am                      Dm   F      C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind

( C  Am  F  Dm  C )

  C                 Am                   Dm            C
I know somewhere in this old world there is a girl for me
                     Am                   D7            G
A girl who longs for wealth and fame, for love and sympathy
  C                    Am     Dm               C
I don't know where she lives, maybe across the sea
                     Am       Dm        F        C
But the walls of Jerico can't keep her away from me

                  Am   Dm                C
Stone must be the wall built around your heart
                 Am               D7            G
I still love you darling, but the time has come to part
C               Am               Dm                  C
No more sorrow, no more pain can enter this heart of mine
                   Am                      Dm   F      C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind

( C  Am  F  Dm  C )

C                  Am                      Dm   F      C
Life isn't long in this old world, let the past stay behind
