[Intro] G Em G Em [Verse 1]
       G                               Em
I have nightmares each week 'bout that Friday in May

    G                            Em
One phone call from you and my entire world was changed

C
Trust that you betrayed, confusion that still lingers

     Em
Took everything I loved and crushed it in between your fingers

      G                              Em
And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did

      G                              Em
But I hold onto every detail like my life depends on it

C
My undying love, now I hold it like a grudge

      Em
Now I hear your voice every time that I think I'm not enough
[Chorus]
      C                   D
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream

C
How could anybody do the things you did so easily?

      G
And I say I don't care, I say that I'm fine

D                                                                       Am
But you know I can't let it go, I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long

         Em                         D         C
It takes strength to forgive, but I don't feel strong
[Verse 2]
    G                        Em
The arguments that I've won against you in my head

       G                              Em
In the shower, in the car, and in the mirror before bed

             C                           D
Yeah, I'm so tough when I'm alone, and I make you feel so guilty

      Em                          D
And I fantasize about a time you're a little fuckin' sorry

      G                               Em
And I try to understand why you would do this all to me

    G                             Em
You must be insecure, you must be so unhappy

      C                   D
And I know, in my heart, hurt people, hurt people

       Em                 D
And we both drew blood, but, man, those cuts were never equal
[Chorus]
      C                   D
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream

C
How could anybody do the things you did so easily?

      G
And I say I don't care, I say that I'm fine

D                                                                       Am
But you know I can't let it go, I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long

         Em                         D         C
It takes strength to forgive, but I don't feel strong
[Bridge]
Em                   Am        C
Ooh, ooh-ooh, do you think I deserved it all?

Em                 Am                   C
Ooh, ooh-ooh, your flower's filled with vitriol

    D
You built me up to watch me fall

    D
You have everything, and you still want more
[Chorus]
  C                 D
I try to be tough, I try to be mean

    C                       D
But even after all this, you're still everything to me

      G                    Em
And I know you don't care, I guess that that's fine

    G                           D                                    Am
But you know I can't let it go, I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long

         Em             D                 C              D
It takes strength to forgive, but I'm not quite sure I'm there yet

         Em             D          C G
It takes strength to forgive, but
