Em S1 Em S1
There are locks on the doors And chains stretched across
Am7 G C S2
All the entries to the inside
Em S1 Em S1
There's a gate and a fence And bars to protect
Am7 G C S2
From only God knows what lurks outside
Em S1 Em S1
Who stole your heart Left you with a space
Am7 G C S2
That no one and nothing can fill
Em S1 Em S1
Who stole your heart Who took it away
Am7 G C S2 Em
Knowing that without it you can't live
Am7 B7
Who took away the part, so essential to the whole
Em
Left you a hollow body, skin and bone
Am7 B7
What robber, what thief
Em
Who stole your heart and the key
Em S1 Em S1
Who stole your heart The smile from your face
Am7 G C S2
The innocence the light from your eyes
Em S1 Em S1
Who stole your heart Or did you give it away
Am7 G C S2
And if so then when and why
Am7 B7
Who took away the part, so essential to the whole
Em
Left you a hollow body, skin and bone
Am7 B7
What robber, what thief
Em
Who stole your heart and the key
Am7 B7 Em
Now all sentiment is gone
Am7 B7 Em
Now you have no trust in no one
Em S1 Em S1
Who Stole your heart Did you know but forget
Am7 G C S2
The method and moment in time
Am7 B7 Em
Was it a trickster using mirrors and slide of hand
Am7 B Em
A strong elixir or a potion that you drank
Em S1 Em S1
Who hurt your heart Bruised it in a place
Am7 G C S2
That no one and nothing can heal
Am7 B7 Em
You've gone to wizards, princes and magic men
Am7 B7 Em
You've gone to witches, the good the bad the indifferent
Am7 B7 Em
But still all sentiment is gone
Am7 B7 Em
But still you have no trust in no one
Em S1 Em S1
If you can tear down the walls Throw your armor away
Am7 G C S2
Remove all roadblocks barricades
Em S1 Em S1
If you can forget there are bandits And dragons to slay
Am7 G C S2
And don't forget that you defend an empty space
Am7 B7 Em
And remember the tinman, found he had what he thought he lacked
Am7 B7
Remember the tinman, go find your heart and take it back
Em S1 Em S1
Who stole your heart Maybe no one can say
Am7 G C S2 Em
One day you will find it I pray
