Hard Pill

[Intro ]
C   G   Em   D 


 
       C 
At his college reunion 
     G 
And, no, I'm not stupid 
  Em 
I knew that she'd be here 
                 D 
And, no, I can't lie 
     C 
I've looked her up often 
    G 
His ex down in Boston 
Em 
Someone that pretty 
      D 
Can't also be nice 
 

 
    Am 
She proved me wrong 
         D 
When she walked up, said hi 
Am 
Soft tone, dark hair 
          D 
And those beautiful brown eyes 
 

 
         C 
That's a hard pill to swallow 
  G 
A tough act to follow 
  Em 
A big lump in my throat 
       D 
'Cause she's got it all 
       C 
And we talked over cosmos 
    G 
And laughed 'til the bar closed 
    Em 
And now even I know 
D 
What made him fall 
          C 
I thought meeting her would make me worry less 
     G 
But, damn, it went and scared me half to death 
   Em                               D 
No way she ain't got a piece of his heart still 
               C         G   Em 
Damn, that's a hard pill 
 

 
            C 
Well, she's smart, but she's funny 
G 
Humble but with money 
Em 
Smooth skin like honey 
    D 
And easy on the eyes 
    C 
And jeans loose in a size two 
G 
Said she likes my tattoos 
        Em 
And the worst part, sad truth 
      D 
After meeting her tonight 
 

 
     Am 
We'd probably be friends 
D 
In another life 
     Am 
He's holding my hand 
   D 
So why's she on my mind? 
 

 
         C 
That's a hard pill to swallow 
  G 
A tough act to follow 
  Em 
A big lump in my throat 
       D 
'Cause she's got it all 
       C 
And we talked over cosmos 
    G 
And laughed 'til the bar closed 
    Em 
And now even I know 
D 
What made him fall 
          C 
I thought meeting her would make me worry less 
     G 
But, damn, it went and scared me half to death 
   Em                               D 
No way she ain't got a piece of his heart still 
               C         G 
Damn, that's a hard pill

Damn, that's a hard pill
