[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE 1]
I wake to the [C]radio [G]morning [D]news
Just [C]as the day is [G]dawning
And I watch from the [C]window while a [G]passing [D]cloud
[C]Dulls the hopeful [G]morning
And I [D]wonder will the [C]girl I [G]love
Come back [C]with the [G]morn[D]ing
But the [G]omen [C]crow at the [G]waking [D]hour
Has [C]given me fair [G]warning

[CHORUS]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
Never makes a [G]sound [Gsus4] [G]

[VERSE 2]
[G]She was [C]once my [G]heart's de[D]light
My [C]need and my de[G]sire
She was my [C]day, she [G]was my [D]night
My [C]water and my [G]fire
And [D]I was once the [C]same to [G]her
When we still [C]walked to[G]ge[D]ther
But the [G]heavy [C]heart at the [G]waking [D]hour
Is ex[C]pecting heavy [G]weather

[CHORUS]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
Never makes a [G]sound [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
Never makes a [G]sound [Gsus4] [G]

[VERSE 3]
[G]I know [C]love, I've [G]seen love's [D]face
I [C]understand its [G]sorrow
For every [C]love I've [G]ever [D]had
Has [C]always met to[G]morrow
Though [D]I am Wednesday's [C]child of [G]woe
I try not to [C]be un[G]grate[D]ful
Ah, but [G]I was [C]born at [G]midnight [D]black
With a [C]heart that can be [G]hateful

[CHORUS]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
Never makes a [G]sound [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
Never makes a [G]sound [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G] [Gsus4] [G]
And the [D]heart that's [C]breaking
