              VERSE: 
                Cadd2     Am9               Em7 
 There ain't no use in me try'n to tell you how I feel  
        Gm7add4     Bb/C              Fadd2 
 'Cause what I feel ain't what you're feelin'  
 Gm7                      Bb/C 
 I don't know what we did wrong  
A7/b9                     Dm7 
 I just know if you come home  
   Gm7                 Bb/C            Fadd2  
 I ain't gonna let you break my heart again  
 
VERSE: 
 
F/G             Cadd2        Am9            Em7 
 There ain't no use in me try'n to find out where you been  
 Gm7               Bb/C            F6/9 
 Where you've been ain't where I'm goin'  
        Gm7          Bb/C             
 'Cause if I ask you where you've been  
     G/A         A7/b9   Dm7  
 The hurtin' starts and it don't end  
      Gm7                 Bb/C            Fadd2  A7/5+ 
 So I ain't gonna let you break my heart again , no  
   Gm7                 Dm9             Gm7   Bb/C  Fadd2  N.C.  
 I ain't gonna let you break my heart again , no, oh

Dbmaj7          Gb/Db 
 Pain ain't my friend  
    Amaj7            Gbm6    Dbmaj7/Ab    Gb/Ab 
 It seems like you enjoy  my cryin', baby  
 Dbmaj7               Gb/Db 
 You always said that I was strong  
     Dbmaj7           Bbm7        
 But I believed that you were wrong  
 Amaj7       Gbm6                 Fmaj7/G 
 Lately , God knows , I have been tryin' 
 
VERSE: 
 
                Cadd2      Am9                     Em7 
 There ain't no use in you tryin' to kiss away the hurt, baby  
           Gm7                         Bb/C                 Fadd2 
 'Cause it hurts where it's deep down inside of me and it's hiding  
    Gm7               C9         
 If you decide you're coming home  
 A7sus   A7             Dm9 
 You walk in , it won't be like before
