^G Promises are made to be broken
^C Haven't you heard?
^G He said he'd never break your heart
^C Now haven't you learned?
You ^D believed in the words
In all that they ^C meant
Oh, but ^D love is not some popular song
^C Filled with empty ^D sentiment
^Am That's what passes for ^D love
^Am That's what passes for ^D love these
^G Days ^C
Oh ^G these days ^C
G It won't take a miracle, darlin'
^C Just keep it real
This ^G world can make us cynical, darlin'
^C I know how it feels
^D You took it to heart
What they said on the ^C screen
Oh, but ^D love is not just playing a part
^C In some very ^D scripted scene
^Am That's what passes for ^D love
^Am That's what passes for ^D love
^Am That's what passes for ^D love these
^G Days ^C
No one can ^Am complete you ^D or make you ^C whole
Well ^G love will come to ^Am greet you half ^D way
Though the ^C streets are never ^G paved with ^C gold

^G Promises are made to be broken
^C Haven't you heard?
^G He said he'd never break your heart
Now ^C haven't you learned?
You ^D believed in the words
In all that they meant ^C
Oh, but ^D love is not some popular song
^C Filled with empt ^D y sentiment
^Am That's what passes for ^D love
^Am That's what passes for ^D love
^Am That's what passes for ^D love these
^G Days ^{C
