Fairport Convention – How Many Times (Guitar)

    D                 A               G                 D
You broke my heart so many times that I can't count the pieces

D              A                G                   D
Every time you push me down, it seems my strength increases

A                     D                   A                  G
How many times do you have to fall, while people stand there gawking?

D                     A               G               D
How many times do you have to fall, before you end up walking?

  D                 A              G                  D
I tried to give you all I have, to prove that I'm not bluffing

     D                   A                   G              D
They say it's a man with nothing to lose who ends up losing nothing

   A               D                      A                   G
My head is full of scheming dreams and my tongue tied up from talking

D                     A               G               D
How many times do you have to fall, before you end up walking?

  D                 A            G                    D
I tried to give you all I had, I thought our love was strong

D                    A                    G               D
Thought that I could treat you right, how did I treat you wrong?

A              D                A                 G
Won't you even open the door to see the wares I'm hawking?

D                     A               G               D
How many times do you have to fall, before you end up walking?

D                 A                  G              D
Won't you give me one more chance? I couldn't do no worse

  D              A                G              D
I emptied out my heart for you, before it had to burst

A              D            A                   G
I'm too hungry not to wait, you're the game I'm stalking

D                     A               G               D
How many times do you have to fall, before you end up walking?
