[Intro]
E F# C#m E

[Verse 1]
E                                   A
Held your hand while I watched you cry
C#m7                               B/Eb  B
Felt your faith crumble just like mine
 E                            F#m7
Now you say hello, I say goodbye
C#m7                                   G#m7
I can't change your heart, how hard I try

[Chorus]
             A
And if love hurts, why do we chase it?
             E
And if love burns, why do we say "I do"?
         D                                       F#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts
             A
And if love hurts, why do we make it?
             E
And if love burns, what more can I do?
         D                                       F#m7
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts

[Post-Chorus]
                                  E
And that's how I know I love you
F#m7                            C#m7       G#m
       And that's how I know I love you

[Verse 2]
     E                                 F#m7
You left a hole that nothing can ever fill
    C#m7                                        B/Eb
You left me with memories that no one can ever steal
     E                                      F#m
You left me broken, but I know I broke you more
        C#m7                    G#m
And it fucks me up down to my core

[Chorus]
             A
And if love hurts, why do we chase it?
             E
And if love burns, why do we say "I do"?
         D                                       F#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts
             A
And if love hurts, why do we make it?
             E
And if love burns, what more can I do?
         D                                       F#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts

[Verse 3]
    E
We live in a world full of pain prevention
       F#m
But we run to love without apprehension
        C#m                              G#m
I say, "Cupid, what a wicked thing to do"
      E
So I mix my Adderall with some alcohol
   F#m
To numb my head, and my heart, and all
   C#m                                   B
Unhealthy remedy, but it will get me through

[Chorus]
            N.C.
And if love hurts, why do we chase it?
        A    E
And if love burns, why do we say "I do"?
         D                                      F#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts
             A
And if love hurts, why do we make it?
             E
And if love burns, what more can I do?
         D                                      F#m
Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that love hurts

[Post-Chorus]
                              A
And that's how I know I love you
                              E
And that's how I know I love you
                              D
And that's how I know I love you, you, you
                    F#m
You, you, you, you, you

[Outro]
                              A
And that's how I know I love you
                              E
And that's how I know I love you
                              D
And that's how I know I love you, you, you
                    F#m
You, you, you, you, you
 N.C
And that's how I know I love you
