[Intro]
Em    G  C  G  C  G  D  C
 
[Verse 1]
  Em                  C       G
It ain't no fun lying down to sleep
          Em               C             G
And there ain't no secrets left for me to keep
           Em              C         G               C
I wish the stars up in the sky would all just call in sick
         Em                    C
And the clouds would take the moon out
        D       C
On some one-way trip
 
[Verse 2]
    Em                 C                     G
I drove all night down streets that wouldn't bend
        Em                 C              G
But somehow they drove me back here once again
       Em              C             G               C
To the place I lost at love, and the place I lost my soul
    Em                C                   D         C
I wish I'd just burn down this place that we called home
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           C              D
It would all have been so easy
          C
If you'd only made me cry
                       D
And told me how you're leaving me
        C               D
To some organ grinder's lullaby
 
[Chorus 1]
     G        C           G             C
It's hard, so hard, it's tearing out my heart
      G   D           C
It's hard letting you go
 
[Verse 3]
       Em                C                 G
Now the sky, it shines a different kind of blue
        Em                   C                  G
And the neighbor's dog don't bark like he used to
          Em               C                   G                 C
Well, me, these days I just miss you, it's the nights that I go insane
 Em                   C                 D                           C
Unless you're coming back for me that's one thing I know that won't change
 
[Chorus 2]
     G        C          G              C
It's hard, so hard, it's tearing out my heart
     G    D           C
It's hard letting you go
 
[Break]
Em      D    C     Am
Ooo__Oh      Ooo__Oh
Em      D    C     Am
Ooo__Oh      Ooo__Oh
 
[Bridge]
         C                           D
Now some tarot card shark said I'll draw you a heart
      G                         C
And we'll find you somebody else new
                                    D
But I've made my last trip to those carnival lips
          C                  D
When I bet all that I had on you
 
[Chorus 3]
     G        C          G        C
It's hard, so hard, it's hard, so hard
     G    D           C
It's hard letting you go
     G        C          G              C
It's hard, so hard, it's tearing out my heart
         G    D           C
But it's hard letting you go
 
[Outro]
Em      D    C     Am
Ooo__Oh      Ooo__Oh
Em      D    C     Am
Ooo__Oh      Ooo__Oh
 
End on Em
