E7 D9 Fdim A E7 D9 A D9 Cdim A
I let my heart fall in - to care - less hands,
E7 D9 E7 A E7 D9 A Fdim A
Care - less hands that broke my heart in two;
E7 D9 Fdim A E7 D9 A D9 Cdim A
You held my dreams like worth - less grains of sand --
E7 D9 E7 A E7 D9 A E7 A
Care - less hands don't care when dreams slip through.

I brought you joy and, Dear, I loved you so,

But all that sun - shine did - n't make the ro - ses grow.
E7 D9 Fdim A F#m
If you don't change,
E7 D9 A D9 A B7 Cdim Dm6
Some - day you'll know the sor - row of
D9 Fdim E7 Bm7-5 E7 Bm7-5 E7 Cdim A
Care - less hands that can't hold on - to love.
