[Opening]
[Am]What’s worse than [G]knowing? [F]Knowing you’re [Dm]not alone
[Am]Hearing a[G]bout you, [F]1 AM [Dm]on my phone
[Am]Feels like I’m on [G]fire, like I’m on [F]ice like I’m all [Dm]broken bones
[Am]I was still [F]hoping (Hoping) [F]You were still [Dm]on your own

[chorus]
I swear when you walked a[Em]way
It didn’t [Dm]hurt me like it hurts me now
And there’s [Em]one thing I know

[chorus]
If I [F]never see your face a[G]gain it would be [Am]hard
But if I [F]ever see you with [G]him, that would be [C]worse worse, worse
If I [F]never see your face a[G]gain it would be [Am]hard (Hard)
But if I [F]ever see you with [G]him, that would be [C]worse worse, worse

[verse 2]
[Am]To small a [G]city, [F]our circle’s [Dm]way too close
[Am]I thought I was [G]healing, [F]I was just [Dm]bleeding slow
[Am]Feels like I’m on [G]fire, like I’m on [F]ice like I’m all [Dm]broken bones
[Am]If I was [G]blinder, [F]this would be less [Dm]painful

[chorus]
I swear when you walked a[Em]way
It didn’t [Dm]hurt me like it hurts me now
And there’s [Em]one thing I know

[chorus]
If I [F]never see your face a[G]gain it would be [Am]hard
But if I [F]ever see you with [G]him, that would be [C]worse worse, worse
