The Hurt Game

D Em G

[Verse 1]
 D
It's been so long, been so much time
     Em
The years have passed, but still, 
you're on…my mind
  C                              
So tell me,…is it fake or just an 
         G
illusion?
 D
We'd make love, and then we'd fight
 Em
Started blowing up like dynamite
  C                           
In the hurt game can't win for 
    G
losing


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Em             
'Cause I've been doing the wrong 
          G
things for the right reasons
     D            Bm              
Drinkin' it all but drowned in the
        A
 meaning
     Em              G         
Cuttin' it off but still got the 
        A
feeling


[Chorus]
              D
And even though when I know that 
it's over
             Em               
Why am I still looking over my 
                C
shoulder at you?
      G
At you?
              D
If we don't forgive and forget and 
start over
                 Em              
Just know that nobody's ever come 
               C
closer than you
        G
Than you
               D
In the hurt game


[Verse 2]
Continues after the ad
 D
From slamming doors, to keeping 
scores
 Em
We walk through fire to get to water
 C                            
Got the kind of love you can't 
      G
explain
 G
Oh, no


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Em             
'Cause I've been doing the wrong 
          G
things for the right reasons
     D            Bm              
Drinkin' it all but drowned in the
        A
 meaning
     Em              G         
Cuttin' it off but still got the 
        A
feeling


[Chorus]
              D
And even though when I know that 
it's over
             Em               
Why am I still looking over my 
                C
shoulder at you?
      G
At you?
              D
If we don't forgive and forget and 
start over
                 Em              
Just know that nobody's ever come 
               C
closer than you
        G
Than you


[Bridge]
G
Oh, whoa
D
The hurt game, we throw blame, the 
worst pain
Em
We love hard, we get scarred, it's 
insane

Can't win for losing in the hurt

[Other]
D
I know that you think that I'm 
drunk, but I'm sober
              Em                   
I know you told me I shouldn't come
           C
 over to you
C       G
But I do
             D
If we don't forgive and forget and
