Verse 1:

It’s kinda sad that I have learned

to deal with things like this

Being strong means being heartless

Tell me how do the scars
feel after the wounds heal?
C#m

were hiding the hurt inside?
Do your eyes still
shine as bright as
E
they did the days when
you were at your best?

If you run away from me
G#m E F#
I’m not running after you
(Cause I’m so tired)
D#m E F#
If you turn away from
G#m E F#
this don’t look back
(Cause I’ll be gone)
Chorus:
B
If you go then I'll forget you

I’m sorry that’s just the way

I’ve learned to deal
with a broken heart

Verse 2:
B
It’s been a long time since I’ve

seen you and longer since we’ve talked
And the last thing that

I said was I had nothing to say
Now I’m choking on my words
E
All the things I didn’t say
that could have made it all ok
Refrain 2:
