Capo 4th Fret
[Intro]
G G G G
In a Gheartbroken town, you were Clucky you found
True Dlove - but that Cwasn't enou GghD  
Your eyes Gstarted to stary, and you Cwandered away
Now you're Dworried, 'cause you've Crun out of Glove
And as the Amnight turns C/Blonely and Dblack
You would C/Btrade your Clast day, just to C/Bfind your way Dback
C/BOh, but Cyou
Can't Dget there from Ghere
It is all with C/Bin vCiew
So Dpainfully Gnear
The saddest C/Bof tCruths
Has Dall become Emclear
The Dworld you can't Chold
Is the one you let DsusgoD  
C/BOh, and Cyou can't Dget there from Ghere
G G
Now the Gone you did wrong, took it Chard and moved on
'Till she Dfound a heart that was Chonest and GtrueD  
You pret Gend you don't care, when you Csee her somewhere
A sh Dine in the eyes of her Csomebody Gnew
While in Amside, it C/Bhurts you so Dmuch
To C/Bknow you can Clook, but you C/Bknow you can't Dtouch
C/BOh, 'cause Cyou
Can't Dget there from Ghere
It is all with C/Bin vCiew
So Dpainfully Gnear
The saddest C/Bof tCruths
Has Dall become Emclear
The Dworld you can't Chold
Is the one you let DsusgoD  
C/BOh, and Cyou can't Dget there from Ghere
In a Bmmoment you can alter a Clifetime
And C/Bspend a Clifetime trying to Gfind your way Dback
C/BOh, but Cyou
Can't Dget there from Ghere
It is all with C/Bin vCiew
So Dpainfully Gnear
The saddest C/Bof tCruths
Has Dall become Emclear
The Dworld you can't Chold
Is the one you let DsusgoD  
C/BOh, and Cyou can't Dget there from Ghere
