verse 1: 

Em 
Wounded, they say you got wounded 
                 A 
Say you're still haunted 
Am         D 
Haunted by all this 
Em 
Deep there, somewhere down deep there 
             A 
It can still overbear 
   Am      D 
In ways so discreet 


Bridge 1: 

            C/G            A7sus4add6       Em 
But there's one thing I'll point out you'll see 
      C/G              A7sus4add6       Em 
And I hope that you'll find these words comforting 



         C*            D*           Em 
When the light settles down here in Honest Town you'll see 
              C*          D*            Em 
There's still something between you and me 
            C*          D*             Em 
And when we turn on our ways back to honest days you'll find 
              C*          D*            Em 
There's still something between you and me

verse 2:

Feel it, I know you still feel it 
         A 
Must I repeat it again 
         Am         D 
Till the healing is over
