[Intro 1]
[D][G][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
You were a [G]pain,
girl, [C]a thorn i[G]n my side
[C]You drove me in[G]sane, girl,
[C]a wide -knuckle rid[G]e[C]
So [G]why do I go looking through
[C]old photographs
And [G]chase you down the hallways
of [C]our checkered past
[G]Hold on for dear life and
keep the [C]fire fed
Hard to let [G]go, but in[C]stead
[D]It's like I'm [G]pressing on a bruise
To [C]see if it still hurts
Right [G]now that's all I've
got left [C]of you
Every[G]body knows that
[C]just makes it worse
But [G]still [C]I do
I could start a [G]new [C]life
I could [G]move [C]on
I could do a [G]drive [C]-by
And see if [G]you're [C]home
Now there's a [G]fine, fine line
between a [C]memory
And [G]something any strength
would call [C]an injury
But [G]it's not over long
as you're still [C]hurting me
And as I [G]turn onto your [C]street
[D]It's like I'm [G]pressing on the bruise
To [C]see if it still hurts
Right [G]now that's all I've got left of [C]you
Any[G]body knows that
[C]just makes it worse
But [G]still I [C]do
[D]Still I do
[C]Sti[D]ll I do[C]
[D]Still love [C]you[D][C]
She's [G]the kind of girl put
your world on [D]hold
[C]Walk the halls and you check your phone
[G]Gave up the ghost
and the ghost keep[D]s holding [C]on
You run [G]from the sun
but you curse the rain
[C]Lost the love so you nurse the pain
Going [G]on and on, singing that same [C]song
But she's [G]gone can't let it alone
You [C]get drunk on her glory day
Can[G]'t just let it heal
With a [C]broken heart and a bitter taste
No, I can[G]'t just let it go
You [C]light it up,
does she burn you down?
[G]Can't just let it heal
[C]Smoking those memories to the
It's like I'm [G]pressing on a bruise
Yeah, [C]that's the thing
about love and [G]pain
When they [C]look alike, they're not the same
No, I [G]can't just let it go
You got to let [C]it go, go, go
No, I can[G]'t just let it hit me
[C][G][C]
