Intro: D G A Bm 
          G A Bm G A 

         D
Is it hard to believe I'm okay
          Em            Am
After all it's been awhile
       D7          G
Since you walked away
                  F#m
I'm way past crying
              Em            A7
Over you finding someone new
   D
You turn my days into night
     Bm               G
But now I see the light
         Em            F#m            C A7
And this may be a big surprise to you

                Chorus
                                D
But/Cause You've made me stronger
        G          A7
By breaking my heart
                 D
You ended my life
                G         A7
And made a better one start
                      Bm
You've taught me everything
                    A7
From falling in love
                     Bm
To letting go of a lie
           Em        F#m
Yes you've made me stronger
    G        A7         D G A Bm G A7
Baby by saying goodbye

       D
If you'd rather believe I'm not over you
        Bm                    Am
Go ahead there's nothing wrong
           D7      G
With making believe
       F#m                   Em
I know cause I used to pretend
                      A7
You'd come back to me
       D
But time has been such a friend
     Bm               G
Brought me to my senses again
           Em        F#m
And I have you to thank
                   C
For setting me free

Think again

Don't feel so sorry for me my friend
    Bm            G
Oh don't you know
               Em                A7
I'm not the one at the losing end
