Verse 1:
G            F         G
  It’s kinda sad that I have learned
   F                     G
to deal with things like this
       F                 G        F
Being strong means being heartless
        C
Tell me how do the scars
feel after the wounds heal?
       Dm
Did it burn when they cauterized?
       Am
Did it show that you
were hiding the hurt inside?
Do your eyes still
shine as bright as
     F
they did the days when
you were at your best?


Refrain:
Em     F    G
If you run away from me
        Am      F     G
I’m not running after you
(Cause I’m so tired)
Em     F     G
If you turn away from
     Am    F    G
this don’t look back
(Cause I’ll be gone)


Chorus:
   C
If you go then I'll forget you
     G
When you’re gone I won’t miss you
    Am
I’m sorry that’s just the way
     F
I’ve learned to deal
with a broken heart
(Repeat)


Post Chorus: G-Am-F

    G      Em   F
And broken promises


G-Am-F--G-Em-F


Verse 2:
C
  It’s been a long time since I’ve
                                Dm
seen you and longer since we’ve talked
And the last thing that
                         Am
I said was I had nothing to say
Now I’m choking on my words
                        F
All the things I didn’t say
that could have made it all ok


Refrain 2:
                G
Now that you’re all alone
and feeling sorry for yourself
F                    C
Did it make sense to lie to me
      G                 F
and deceive me like you did?


(Repeat Refrain 1 and Chorus and Post chorus)


(Repeat Intro but only twice)


Bridge:
         C           Dm
Tell me, how do the scars
     F
feel after the wounds heal?
       C              Dm   F
Did it burn when they cauterized?
       C
Did it show that you
                Dm
were hiding the hurt inside?
        F
Do your eyes still shine as
               C
bright as they did the
          Dm               F
days when you were at your best?


Outro:
G           F
How do the scars feel
G         F
after the wounds heal?
       G
Did it burn when
     F    G
they cauterized?
