[Verse 1]
   G               Em             D                  G
I hear a lot of stories, I sup - pose they could be true,
 G         C             G             D
All about love, and what it can do to you,
  G                    Em              D               G
High is the risk of striking out, the risk of getting hurt,
      G          D         C
And still... I have... so much to learn,
         C               C4       C       G       Em    D  G
Well, I know, 'cause I think a - bout it all the time,
   C            C4    C      D
I know... that real love is hard to find!

[Chorus]
        G    D                    Em      C
And a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
  G    C          G     D
True love, the lasting kind,
        G    D                    Em      C
And a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
      G        D                C
So please be gentle with this heart of mine!

[Verse 2]
     G          Em               D             G
My expectations may be high, I blame it on my youth,
  G                C         G       D
Soon enough I'll learn the painful truth,
       G              Em           D                  G
I'll face it like a fighter, then boast of how I've grown,
   G          D           C
Anything is better than being alone,
         C               C4      C      G   Em    D  G
Well, I know, 'cause I learn a little every day,
   C               C4    C          D
I know, 'cause I listen when the experts say...

[Chorus]
           G    D                    Em      C
..That a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
  G    C          G     D
True love, the lasting kind,
        G    D                    Em      C
And a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
      G        D                C
So please be gentle with this heart of mine!

[Verse 3]
   G            Em        D        G
As I reflect on all my childhood dreams,
G            C                G               D
My ideas of love weren't as foolish as they seemed,
G                  Em          D                 G
If I don't start looking now, I'll be left be - hind,
        G    D                 C
And a good heart, these days,      it's hard to find,
    C            C4         C     G       Em    D  G
I know, it's a dream I'm willing to de - fend,
   C           C4      C       D
I know, it'll all be worth it, in the end!

[Chorus]
        G    D                     Em      C
And a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
  G    C          G     D
True love, the lasting kind,
        G    D                    Em      C
And a good heart, these days, is hard to find,
      G        D                C
So please be gentle with this heart of mine!
