Johnny Cash - Hurt

[intro]
Am  C  Dsus2  Am  C  Dsus2

[verse 1]
Am   C       Dsus2     Am       C      Dsus2    Am
   I hurt myself today   to see if I still feel
  C    Dsus2        Am        C      Dsus2      Am
I focus on the pain   the only thing that's real
    C      Dsus2       Am         C      Dsus2   Am
The needle tears a hole   the old familiar sting
       C      Dsus2      Am           C      Dsus2  G
Try to kill it all away   but I remember everything

[chorus 1]
Am              F     C               G
What have I become?     My sweetest friend
Am          F             C        G
Everyone I know  goes away in the end
    Am                 F    G               G
And you could have it all   My empire of dirt
Am              F      G
I will let you down    I will make you hurt

[verse 2]
Am   C         Dsus2        Am        C      Dsus2    Am
   I wear this crown of thorns   upon my liar's chair
C       Dsus2        Am       C     Dsus2    Am
Full of broken thoughts   I cannot repair
  C          Dsus2        Am         C       Dsus2   Am
Beneath the stains of time   the feelings disappear
C         Dsus2      Am    C     Dsus2           G
You are someone else   I am still right here

[chorus 2]
Am              F     C               G
What have I become?     My sweetest friend
Am          F             C        G
Everyone I know  goes away in the end
    Am                 F    G            G
And you could have it all   My empire of dirt
Am              F     G               G
I will let you down   I will make you hurt

[outro]
   Am               F     G              G
If I could start again  a million miles away
Am              F    G
I would keep myself  I would find a way
