How long does it[G] hur[C]t when a hear[D7]t breaks[G]
How long can you [C]stand the [G]pain
How [C]long does one [D7]dream when a [G]dream dies
And [C]only the [D7]memories [G]remain
It [C]seems it must take [G]forever
To forget the love you once [D7]knew
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
How [C]long must the [D7]heart ache for [G]you
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
Oh how many [C]tears must [G]fall
Be[C]fore one is [D7]free from the [G]chains of
A [C]love that's [D7]beyond all [G]recall
I [C]keep saying soon I'll [G]forget you
But somehow I never [D7]do
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
As [C]long as I [D7]keep loving [G]you
How long can you [C]stand the [G]pain
How [C]long does one [D7]dream when a [G]dream dies
And [C]only the [D7]memories [G]remain
It [C]seems it must take [G]forever
To forget the love you once [D7]knew
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
How [C]long must the [D7]heart ache for [G]you
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
Oh how many [C]tears must [G]fall
Be[C]fore one is [D7]free from the [G]chains of
A [C]love that's [D7]beyond all [G]recall
I [C]keep saying soon I'll [G]forget you
But somehow I never [D7]do
How [C]long does it [D7]hurt when a [G]heart breaks
