                G9          C      Csus2  G9     C Csus2
You would have kept those words on your tongue
            G9          C Csus2 G9     C Csus2
If you had known what they had done
            G9          C           Csus2   G9     C Csus2
While your fists stay right, right by your side
                G9         C Csus2 G9      C  
Your words they bruise me deep   inside
   G/B            C          Dsus4    G  G/B  C9        
I'd rather have sticks and stones and broken bones
          C        Dsus4 Em
Than the words you say to me
G/B                C      Dsus4     G   G/B   C9
Cause I know that bruises heal and cuts will seal
           C              D
But your words beat the life from me
 

              G9          C  Csus2 G9     C Csus2
Sometimes your words are thick as lead
                G9       C  Csus2 G9     C Csus2
You swing them strong upside my head
              G9       C  Csus2 G9     C Csus2
What hasn't killed has made me strong
               G9       C  Csus2 G9     C Csus2
So I'll take my scars and move along

 

D               G       G/B     C
Goodbye is the best way that I know
    D           G  G/B   C       D      G/B
To forgive and still be letting go   (I'd rather have...)
