Intro: GGm7GGm7
Verse:
GGm7
I have nightmares each week about that Friday in May
GGm7
One phone call from you and my entire world was changed
Em
Trust that you betrayed, confusion that still lingers
D
You took everything I loved and crushed it in between your fingers
GGm7
And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did
GGm7
But I hold on to every detail like my life depends on it
Em
My undying love, now I hold it like a grudge
D
And I hear your voice every time that I think Iʼm not enough
Chorus:
Cm7
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream
How could anybody Do the things you did so easily?
GGm7
And I say I donʼt care, I say that Iʼm fine
GGm7Am7
But you know I canʼt let it go, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried for so long
EmDC
It takes strength to forgive, but I donʼt feel strong
Verse:
GGm7
The arguments that I have won against you in my head
GGm7
In the shower, in the car and in the mirror before bed
Em
Yeah, Iʼm so tough when Iʼm alone and I make you feel so guilty
And I fantasize about a time youʼre a little ******* sorry
GGm7
And I try to understand why you would Do this all to me
GGm7
You must be insecure, you must be so unhappy
Em
And I know, in my heart, hurt people hurt people
And we both drew blood, but, man, those cuts were never equal
Chorus:
Cm7
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream
How could anybody Do the things you did so easily?
GGm7
And I say I donʼt care, I say that Iʼm fine
GGm7Am7
But you know I canʼt let it go, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried for so long
EmDCG
It takes strength to forgive, but I donʼt feel strong
Bridge:
EmAm7Cm7
Ooh, Do you think I deserved it all?
EmAm7Cm7
Ooh, your flowerʼs filled with vitriol
D
You built me up to watch me fall
You have everything and you still want more
Chorus:
Cm7
I try to be tough, I try to be mean
But even after all this, youʼre still everything to me
GGm7
And I know you donʼt care, I guess that thatʼs fine
GGm7Am7
But you know I canʼt let it go, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried, Iʼve tried for so long
EmDCD
It takes strength to forgive, but Iʼm not quite sure Iʼm there yet
EmDCG
It takes strength to forgive, but...
