My Heart's Not Made That Way
Recorded by Eddy Arnold
Written by Merle Kilgore

C                     Am
Pretty words that you told me 
  D7            G7
Belong to yesterday
        C                  Am
And the things you said to hold me 
        D7                G7
Have no power to make you stay

      C
Maybe someone else will date you 
         F                       D7
But only good thing my heart can say
   C          G7      Am   G7
No I'll never put you down babe 
         D7          G7        C
Cause my heart's not made that way
          D7          G7        C   G7
(Cause my heart's not made that way)

     C              Am
Well love is like a whirl wind 
D7              G7
Time goes by so fast
C                     Am
Good times are not forever 
       D7                 G7
And we reached the end at last

  C
I know you cried like a little child 
     F                  D7
Even that could make me stay
    C          G7      Am   G7
But I'll never put you down babe 
         D7          G7        C
Cause my heart's not made that way
          D7          G7        C   G7
(Cause my heart's not made that way)

C                      Am
Memories may be big as mountains 
           D7            G7
But you'll make your way across
C                  Am
Once you shared so much 
D7                 G7
Always ever really lost

        C
No your hurt it won't be better 
    F                  D7
For tomorrow's another day
    C                  Am
And I'll never put you down babe 
         D7          G7        C
Cause my heart's not made that way

                             Am
And I'll never never put you down babe 
         D7          G7        C
Cause my heart's not made that way
                             Am
And I'll never never put you down babe 
         D7          G7        C
Cause my heart's not made that way
