Nothing Ever Hurt Me (Half as Bad as Losing You)

A                         D                A              D  
Well I've had a splittin' headache from my eyebrows to my backbone
A            D           A                   D  
Arthritis, appendicitis, brights disease and gall stones
A                D                  A          D  
Bleedin' ulcers, ingrown toe nails, swollen adenoids
    A           D               A              D  
The Asian flu a time or two and inflamed vocal chords
     A               D            A       Ab    G  F#  B  F#  
I've had a toothache so severe my jawbone split in two
    B              E               A
But nothing's ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

Well I've had the lit end of a cigar pressed against my belly
Whipped on with a crowbar till my eyeball turned to jelly
Accidentally nailed my index finger to the wall
Cut off all my toes and soaked my foot in alcohol
I've had my pelvis ruptured by an angry kangaroo
But nothing's ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

          D
Well it's not because you measure fifty twenty forty four
     A
It's surely not because you own a chain of liquor stores
     D
It's not because your daddy is the richest man in town
     E                                                  F
It's just that I've grown used to you and having you around

(up ½ measure to Bb)
I've had my parents tell me son we don't love you at all
I've seen my sister's name written on a washroom wall
My best friend set my barn on fire burned my horse to death
I went out with a girl who told me that I had bad breath
Last week I drew a crowd when I went to the city zoo
But nothing's ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

Well I've had a splittin' headache...
