Intro: Em

G                       Am
Something told me inside
                        Em
That your love was untrue

Something told me inside

Something told me inside
G                            Am
You said,  Girl, it's alright
                       Em
I would never hurt you

You said,  Girl, it's alright

He said,  Girl, it's alright
G                      Am
Just to be by your side
                                  Em
I would've walked through the flames

Just to be by your side

Just to be by your side
G                    Am
Now it hurts me inside
                      D
Just to hear your name
     Am
Just to hear your name
         G
I learned the hard way
          Am
That your love is cruel
         G
I learned the hard way, baby
         Am
Not to be your fool
         G
I learned the hard way
          Am                    Em
I learned the hard way about you

Now I know about you

Now I know about you
G                  Am
When I open my eyes
                    Em
It was all around me

When I open my eyes

When I open my eyes
G                         Am
Clouds of perfume and lies
               Em
And a hotel key

Clouds of perfume and lies

Clouds of perfume and lies
G                             Am
And when I answered your phone
                          Em
I heard a gasp and a click

When I answered your phone

When I answered your phone
G                                Am
Ooh, was that wrong number, wrong
                 D       Am
Or was she after your love

( Em  G  Am ) (3x)

Just to be by your side

I would walk through the flames
                      D
Now it hurts me inside
      Am
Just to hear your name
         G
I learned the hard way
      Am
That your love is cruel
         G
I learned the hard way, baby
      Am
Not to be your fool
         G
I learned the hard way
      Am                        Em
I learned the hard way about you

Now I know about you
                     G    Am    Em
Now I know about you

Now I know about you
                     G   Am    Em
Now I know about you

Now I know about you

Now I know about you

( Em  G  Am )

( Em  G  Am )  (3x)

Just to be by your side

I would walk through the flames
                  D
Now it hurts me inside
          Am
Just to hear your name
         G
I learned the hard way
       Am
That your love is cruel
         G
I learned the hard way, baby
      Am
Not to be your fool
         G
I learned the hard way
              Am
Well, I learned the hard way, baby, about you
         G                   Am
