Intro: G  C   G  Am  D 

              C 
Your heart is broken 
                     G 
Your world, a bitter place 
                C 
Your confidence shaken 
     Am     D 
Your faith erased 
           C 
What you depend on 
             G 
Is up in the air 
                 C  Am     C 
You want to move forward 
   Am      G       C   G 
No forward there 


             C 
Your husband left you 
               G 
No good reason why 
               C 
He wants a new life 
Am          D 
You want to die 
   G           C 
He wants to be your friend 
                 G 
But you can't be his 
C            Am        C 
Tell him to go to hell 
           Am      G       C   G   C  Am  D 
'Cause you already did 


Bridge: 
    F             C 
The problem's not hatred 
        F            C 
There's no hate from him 
    F          C              G 
The facts of indifference are cruel 
          F        C 
With it's pleasant skin 
         F      C 
And it's brutal grin 
        F                 C           G      F 
How the world learns your name and it spins away 


INTERLUDE:   D   C   G  C  Am  D 


                   C 
It's a question of damage 
           G 
And wasted years 
                 C 
But love's never wasted 
          Am      D 
Though it led you here 
   G            C 
It might be the worst place 
            G 
You've ever been 
          C          Am     C 
Still you light up a room 
     D        G    C 
When you walk in 
    Am               C   D 
You light up a room 
              G 
When you walk in 


OUTRO: C   G   C  D    C   G   C   G
