                 LEAD-IN:  F   G   C6  ( F C )
            C6                        Fmaj7
            I been around, yeah, I've lived enough
            Am                       F
to know how heavenly love can be and () how tough.
            C6                                        F6
      So if what you're tryin' to tell me sounds like () "goodbye",
            G7                                 F7
          I sure won't smile but trust me I'll () get by.

            F                       G
        You know that it's true:  I hate losin' you.
            Am7                     ( Am7   C6 )
   It hurts worse than I'm wishin' to feel.
            F                              G
   But don' think when we part, it's gonna shatter my heart,
            C6          ( F          C )        ( C6  F7 )  ( G7  Am )
   I'm just () heartbent  - and I'll heal.

            I know heartbreak, how it feels to be torn,
           apart inside, wishin' I'd never been born,
        but this ain't the worst ache that I've ever had,
      feels more like some upset from lunch meat gone bad.

        You know that it's true:  I hate losin' you.
   It hurts worse than I'm wishin' to feel.
   But don' think that the pain is gonna drive me insane,
   I'm just () heartbent - and I'll heal.

    'Though breakin' up () sure wrecks a night on the town,
    I won't let it pull my heart an' whole () life down.
       I'll get through grievin' with my ego intact,
        for tomorrow I start on my () climb back.
        
        You know that it's true:  I hate losin' you.
   It hurts worse than I'm wishin' to feel.
   But don' think when we part, it's gonna shatter my heart,
   I'm just () heartbent - and I'll heal.

            Darlin' it's true:  I hate losin' you.
   It hurts worse than I'm wishin' to feel.
   But don' think that the pain is gonna drive me insane,
   I'm just () heartbent - and I'll heal.
