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 F How were you to know? G How were you to know? 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 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? F How were you to know? G How were you to know? 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 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 F How were you to know? G How were you to know? 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
