          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 sleight 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
