                  A5                              E5
There's a danger of getting so close to you
                        F#5                                  D5
There comes a time when the walls fade away
A5                                   E5
And when love turns to bitter blue
                         F#5                            D5
Sometimes it feels like it's so hard to stay

G5                                       B5
Last night we went to bed angry
G5                                       B5
We didn't mean what we said
G5                                       B5
Seems we never get past forgiveness
      Bb5                                                               C5
We try to hide, we never learn to swallow our pride

              D5     A5   B5
On the down side of love
                 G5                                  Bb5            C5
Where the love turns to hate we just can't relate
              D5     A5   B5
On the down side of love
                      G5
When you're misunderstood
                        Bb5              C5                    D5         E5
Cause when it hurts you it hurts you so good

A5                           E5
Baby life has no guarantee
               F#5                                 D5
Never knowing where love's gonna lead
A5                                 E5
Even though you're a part of me
                     F#5                                 D5
We have to deal with our pain separately

G5                                            B5
Sometimes we both feel like victims
G5                            B5
With no easy way out not, no, no
G5                                          B5
Somehow we stand by each other
                        Bb5
When we're desperate, and drowning in
        C5                  D5
The shadows of doubt

              D5     A5   B5
On the down side of love
                 G5                                  Bb5            C5
Where the love turns to hate we just can't relate

When you're misunderstood
                        Bb5              C5                    F5
Cause when it hurts you it hurts you so good

                               Bb5
The times we share the tenderness
                F5                             C5   C#5
Are the times that keep us alive
                  D5                   C5
You get in my face, you rough me up
       B5
But baby you know
       Bb5
Can't hurt me 'nough, to give you up
       A5
And make me let go, make me let got oh no, no

Downside of love
Love's just a long, long road baby
