Six o'clock in the morning

My head is ready to explode

I can't believe I made it home alive

I don't remember where I went

Or what I was drinking

But I know its made me sick

And i'm not denying

That I get this way

When I try to get over you

I get this way

When I try to get over you...


D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love

D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love



I try so hard to hate you

But it only makes things worse

I only end up hating myself

And as my hatred goes

So do the lies

It's hard to face the truth sometimes

God I feel so useless

God I hate myself

When I try to get over you

I hate myself

How will I ever get over you


D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love

D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love




And after all this time


You'd think I'd understand the way you feel


but no

D E
I only think about myself

F G Bb
And its driving you away

A
I always knew it would one day


D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love

D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love

D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love

D Bb
Sometimes it hurts

G A
So much to lose the one you love
