So I'll never feel your touch again, I'll get used to it. Hearts don't break they just bend.
C Am D Am C G G Em
I'll come bouncing back, you barely left a scratch on me. You were nothing but a little

play thing and your love bite, it was only a sting. Baby when you went it hardly made a

dent in me. It was just a flesh wound in my pride, it ain't no tragedy that I can't survive.
CHORUS:

I say can make you go away. I'm lyin' to myself that's the truth. It's killing me being

without you. You're the only one not fooling anyone. I'm lyin' to myself.
G Em Am G Em Am C
I lie here alone in this bed, broken record of your voice in my head cause nothing that

much, only everything, just to have you again.
BRIDGE:
C G Em C D G C

for.
