Tom : G
G D G
[Verse 1]
G C G
Children say that words will never harm you
G C D
Only sticks and stones will make you cry
C G
But they'll grow up one day and learn the real truth
G D G
When the one that they love says goodbye
[Chorus]
C G
The hardest part of living is loving
D
'Cause loving turns to leaving every time
C G
And the hardest part of leaving is living
C Em C
Life is hard when love is so unkind
G D G
Life is hard when love is so unkind
[Verse 2]
G C G
I don't trust old sayings any longer
G D
Most are only decorated lies
C G
Absence doesn't make the heart grow fonder
G D G
And out of sight don't mean out of mind
[Chorus]
