CAPO 4
[Verse 1]
C Am
There is not a single word
C
In the whole world
Am
That could describe the hurt
F
The dullest knife just sawing back and forth
G
Ripping through the softest skin there ever was
[Pre-Chorus]
F
How were you to know?
G
How were you to know?
[Chorus]
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G
But I've been there before
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G
But I've been there before
[Verse 2]
C Am
Love happens all the time
C
To people who aren't kind
Am
And heroes who are blind
F
Expecting perfect scripted movie scenes
G
Who wants an awkward silence mystery?
[Pre-Chorus]
F
How were you to know?
G
How were you to know?
[Chorus]
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G
But I've been there before
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G F
But I've been there before
[Bridge]
Am G F
For all the air that's in your lungs
Am G
For all the joy that is to come
F
For all the things that you're alive to feel
G
Just let the pain remind you hearts can heal
[Pre-Chorus]
F
How were you to know?
G
How were you to know?
[Chorus]
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G
But I've been there before
C Am
And I, I hate to see your heart break
F
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close
G
But I've been there before
