Chords in this song6

Verse 1

Livin' on your own can be a lonely game
A face in the crowd - no one knows your name
It's a table for one and a broken heart to go 
She's the kind of lover that you always dreamed
Would come to stay and never wanna leave
But that's all changed - she's dealt the final blow

Chorus

Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of
Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love 

Verse 2

It doesn't matter who was right or wrong
When the fire is over - when the magic's gone
You pick up the pieces and do the best you can
It knocks you down but you try it again
You get a little older it's a cryin' shame
Sometimes things don't work out like you plan

Chorus

Who's gonna help when you've had enough
It ain't no secret you're a victim of love 
Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of
Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love 

Bridge

One goodbye was really all it took
Now you thumb through the pages of your little black book
But somehow all the numbers look the same
You've been thinkin' how to get around it
But there ain't nothin' you can do about it
Nothin' ventured - nothin' gained

Chorus

Ain't nothin' you can't rise above
Call it what you want but you're a victim of love 
Who's gonna help when you've had enough
It ain't no secret you're a victim of love 

Outro

I don't wanna lose your love
I don't wanna lose it 
Baby it's alone again
But somehow all the numbers look the same
I don't wanna lose it   
Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of
Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love 
Heaven knows, heaven knows 
You're just a victim of love  
It's alone again    
Who's gonna help you when you've had enough
Ain't no secret you're a victim, just a victim of love
| G | Dm Bb | C | C | G | Dm Bb |
It's just a victim of love
