I can think of younger days when living for my life
Em                                 D
Was everything a man could want to do.
F#7                 Bm          E7                A7       A  A7
I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow.

And how can you mend a broken heart?
Em
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
G           A7       G        A7
How can you stop the sun from shining?
G              A7       D
What makes the world go round?
 
Dmaj7
How can you mend this broken man?
Em
How can a loser ever win?
       G       A7      G      A7
Please help me mend my broken heart 
G          A7    D
and let me live again.

I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
Em                              D
And misty memories of days gone by
F#7                  Bm      E7                  A7       A  A7
We could never see tomorrow, no one said a word about the sorrow.

Mostly good and playable version. Chords and lyrics are not well aligned, though, and I'd suggest different chords for the turnaround lines in the chorus: Em A D What makes the world go round Em A D And make me live again
