I saw all of these versions of Hurt on here, and I saw that they were all messed up.
This posts will correct them all.

(intro:) (Am C D Am C D Am) (start song)
1&234 1&2 3&4 1&234 1&2 3&4 1&234
C D Am
I hurt myself today
C D Am
To see if I still feel
C D Am
I focus on the pain
C D Am
The only thing that's real
C D Am
The needle tears a hole
C D Am
The old familiar sting
C D Am
Try to kill it all away
C D G
But I remember everything
When at the (G) chord here, go to even 4/4 strumming
Am F
What have I become?
C G
My sweetest friend
Am F
Everyone I know
C G
Goes away in the end
Am F
And you could have it all
C G
My empire of dirt
Am F
I will let you down
G Am
I will make you hurt
C D Am
I wear my crown of thorns
C D Am
Upon my liar's chair
C D Am
Full of broken thoughts
C D Am
I cannot repair
C D Am
Beneath the stain of time
C D Am
The feelings disappear
C D Am
You are someone else
C D G
I am still right here
When at the (G) chord here, go to even 4/4 strumming
Am F
What have I become?
C G
My sweetest friend
Am F
Everyone I know
C G
Goes away in the end
Am F
And you could have it all
C G
My empire of dirt
Am F
I will let you down
G Am
I will make you hurt
C F
If I could start again
C G
A million miles away
Am F
I would keep myself
G Am
I would find a way
Strum the final (G) chord once and let it ring.
