(G)Girl i've got scars,and i've seen stars,From 
(C)men nearly 
(D)twice my 
(G)size.Hit with sticks and stones and broke a few bones. 
(C)but i've allways sur 
(D)vived. 
(G)When I take a look at all I've took,It 
(C)don't seem 
(D)right to 
(G)me.How a little bitty woman with just just a few 
(G)words could 
(C)bring me to my 
(G)knees.

(G)Sticks and 
(C)stones wouldn't hurt a bit' 
(G)compared to the cold cruel 
(C)words that just left your 
(D)lips i'd rather you 
(C)picked up a rock a  
(D)stick full of 
(G)thorns rared back and let her 
(C)fly.Cause those sticks wouldn't 
(G)cut. 
(D)stones hurt as much as the 
(G)sound of your goodbye.

Yes I know i'm the reason,for your leavin'.I'm to blame sure enough. 
It's like you say there's not a woman made,who can live without true love. 
So if it's too late to set things streight,there's no forgivin' me. 
Don't say nothin' just pick up somethin' that'll end this misery.
