D
Tear-stained eyes and a confused heart
Bm
Mama always sang Love Shouldn't Be This Hard
    G
But I stuck around 'cause I surely thought
D
I could die from a broken heart


[Chorus]
              G                   Bm
But as I grew older and opened my eyes
          A
I came to wonder
            G           Bm
How you can hurt me without feeling bad
              D
How can you desert me without a sting on your back?
       A
I told mama I can't hurt a fly without a worry
G                                  D
How can you hurt a girl not saying sorry?


[Verse 2]
D
Looking back, I guess I was numb
Bm
 Young and blind, tangled up in love
G
I held onto what I got
      D
Every text of your word leaving me with scars


[Chorus]
              G                   Bm
But as I grew older and opened my eyes
          A
I came to wonder
            G           Bm
How you can hurt me without feeling bad
              D
How can you desert me without a sting on your back?
       A
I told mama I can't hurt a fly without a worry
G                                  D
How can you hurt a girl not saying sorry?


[Bridge]
 G                            Bm         A
Apol-, apologizing ain't mean nothing to you
 G                            Bm
Apol-, apologizing ain't mean nothing


[Chorus]
              G                   Bm
But as I grew older and opened my eyes
          A
I came to wonder
            G           Bm
How you can hurt me without feeling bad
              D
How can you desert me without a sting on your back?
       A
I told mama I can't hurt a fly without a worry
G                                  D
How can you hurt a girl not saying sorry?
