F
Livin' on your own can be a lonely game
C
A face in the crown, no one knows your name
Bb Am7
It's a table for one and a broken heart to go
F
She's the kind of lover that you always dreamed
C
would come to stay and never wanna leave
Bb Am7
But that's all changed; she's dealt the final blow
Chorus:
G
Heaven knows what you were thinkin of
Dm Bb C
Don't blame yourself, you're just a victim of love
F
It doesn't matter who was right or wrong
C
When the fire is over, when the magic's gone
Bb Am7
You pick up the pieces, and do the best you can
F
It knocks you down, but you try it again
C
You get a little older, it's a cryin' shame
Bb Am7
Sometimes things don't work out like you plan
G
Who's gonna help you when you've had enough
Dm Bb C
It ain't no secret you're a victim of love
G
Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of
Dm Bb
Don't blame youself, you're just a victim of love
F
One goodbye was really all it took
C
Now you thumb through the pages of your little black book
Bb Am7
But somehow all the numbers look the same
F
You've been thinkin' how to get around it
C
But there ain't nothin' you can do about it
Bb Am7
Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained
Chorus:
G
Ain't nothin' you can't rise above
Dm Bb C
Call it what you want but you're a victim of love
G
Who's gonna help you when you've had enough
Dm Bb
Ain't no secret you're a victim of love1
