G6 
When the ones you thought you knew 
           Am 
Turn their backs on you 
G6 
Another side of life to face 
             Am 
Some haven't used a thing 


       Em                 Fmaj7    G6 
Cos it hurts to find some people unkind 
       Em                 Fmaj7    G6 
Yes it hurts to find some people unkind 

Verso 2:
G6 
All in time our wounds are healed 
         Am 
By those very warm 
G6 
You forget this other side 
             Am 
When good outweighs the bad? 


        Em                 Fmaj7    G6 
Till it hurts to find some people unkind 
        Em                 Fmaj7     G6 
Till it hurts to find some people unkind

Ponte:
Em                              Fmaj7 
Can you win or lose what you've really got 
   G6 
Or had? 
          Am 
When your eyes can see through mine
