Verse 1
E
Saw a man in the movie,
E7
that didn't have a heart,
A B7 E
how I wish I could give him mine.
E
Then I wouldn't have to feel,
E7
it breakin all apart,
A B7
then this emptiness inside would suit me fine.
Chorus:
A E E7 E A
It's time like these.....,I wish I were a tin man,
A E B7
You could hurt me all you wanted....,I'd never even know,
A E E7 E A Bm A
I'll give anything....,Just to be a tin man,
A E B7 E
Then I wouldn't have heart....,And I wouldn't need a soul.
Verse 2
E
I couldn't see it coming,
E7
it took me by surprise,
A B7 E
even now it still seems like a dream.
E
But I know I can't be dreaming,
E7
Cause I lie down each night,
A B7
The pain so great that it won't let me sleep.
Chorus:
Ending:
A E E7 E A Bm A
I'll give anything....,Just to be the tin man,
A E B7 N.C. E
Then I wouldn't have heart....,And I wouldn't miss you so.
I hope you enjoy!!
