    How Much It Hurts

  • Artist:

    John Mayer

Mayer plays a much more intricate song that what I have laid out here, but if you 
want the basic chord structure to strum and sing along with, this works well for me:


D                  A
Speak, speak your mind
            Bm                    A
Your always telling me I need to open mine
    D               A
And wait, wait your turn
             Bm                                    A
Then shut me out cause you've got nothing left to learn


        Em7                 A                Em
Oh, you say there's nothing wrong with being proud
   Em7              A               Em
So tell me what you love and say it loud
    Em7                  A                   Em
Now here's the dose that you've been dishing out
D                                              A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts
Bm                                          A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts


        D
Oh, I'm wrong
           A
I'm wrong again
          Bm                                     A
But not because of where I stand but where I've been
       D
And it burns
                            A
Oh, you know it burns like hell
                Bm                             A
To know there's nothing I can do but wish you well

    Em7                 A                 Em
You say there's nothing wrong with being proud
   Em7              A                Em
So tell me what you love and say it loud
          Em7             A                Em
I've been good enough to stay and hear you out
           D  A
But you're wrong
             Bm A
You're never wrong

        Em7                   A                Em
Oh, you say there's nothing wrong with being proud
       Em7              A                Em
Ya, so tell me what you love and say it loud
          (drop)         A               Em
I've been giving you the benefit of the doubt

D                                              A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts
Bm                                          A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts
D                                              A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts
Bm                                          A
 If you're listening this is how much it hurts
