she says it soft-ly over
"I'm all alone"



She does not listen to the eulogies
She gives no credence to her pain
"From now on I'm through with love
                            G
From now on I will not love again."



these are the chords for the first two lines of the chorus

CHORUS:

There are no hearts to mend
There are no prayers to send

           Em
There's no reason why

           A7                  CM7           F#m?   x42200  B7  x21200
There's no need to cry for the sadness of it all


There are no skies of blue
There are no dreams come true and there is no care
Let the world beware should the tears of Audrey fall



She carefully polishes her heart of stone
She deftly sculpts her feet of clay
"I'm no one and none can touch me
No one . . . it's easier this way."



There are no hearts to mend
There are no prayers to send
and there is no care 
Let the world beware
Should the tears of Audrey fall

So now she's shutting all her windows tight
And now she's closing all her blinds
"How can I believe in light
When darkness is all around?"




There are no hearts to mend
There are no prayers to send

           Em
There's no reason why

           A7                  CM7           F#m? = x42200  B7 = x21200
There's no need to cry for the sadness of it all


There are no skies of blue
There are no dreams come true and there is no care
Let the world beware should the tears of Audrey fall
