I Know You're Hurting

Intro: 

D F#m E 
    Hmmm 
                 D F#m E 
Oh, da-da-da-va-vaaaaa 

 
                                 D F#m E 
I can see you're standing on the edge 

Your legs step on the ledge of life's 
D          F#m E 
Afflictions,     mm 
                             D     F#m E 
I know you're a master of disguise,      you are 
                                 D 
Underneath that soft and gentle smile you put 
F#m     E 
On this morning 
                                      D F#m E 
You give when you have little left to giiiive 
                                D       F#m E 
You ballroom dance with hollow "how are you's"? 
How are you's"? 
                                     D  F#m   E 
Your body aches from marching up your mountains 
 Ah 
                            D F#m E 
But you always keep pushing on,    you always 
Keep pushing on 
                                        D F#m E 
I know life can be a bitch, so cold and mundane 

And I'm thinking of you dear, I hope you're 
D F#m E 
Okay,  ayy 
                              D    F#m E 
Maybe there's a hole you're hiding somewhere 
                                   D    F#m E 
And you hide it so well, you do, I must saaay 
 

 
                               D F#m E 
But I, I, I know you're hurting 
                                        D F#m E 
And deep down there, something's burning 

If you need two more arms to hold these burdens 
 D F#m E 
 I am  here 

I said a prayer for you, I hope it's working 
D      F#m E 
Please my  dear 
                                      D F#m E 
Don't stop believing in miracles, oh, oh,    no 
 

 
                                   D 
You'll always find some kind words for a 
  F#m  E 
Stranger 
                                D       F#m  E 
I wish that you could find some for yourself 
Yeah 
                            D             F#m 
You claw yourself apart in private moments 
E 
And all the bruises you put plasters on 
                                    D F#m E 
While life has dealt another losing hand 
                                         D 
You bite your tongue, and tense your thighs to 
 F#m E 
Stand 

You know that you can't be so strong alone, all 
    D     F#m        E 
The time, so please stop 
Trying to be so strong all alone, all alone 
                     D              F#m E 
You don't have to do this all alone 
 

 
Even though I know, I know, I know you're 
Hurting 
D F#m E 
I      know that deep down there something's 
Burning 
D F#m E 
I     know if you need two more arms to hold 
These burdens 
D F#m E 
I am here, I said a prayer for you, I hope it's 
         D      F#m E 
Working, please my  dear 
                                 D F#m E 
Don't stop believing in miracles

                                    D F#m 
I know it's hurting, it's just 6:30 

I know it's hurting, I pray the lord have mercy 
 D  F#m  E

Ain't this a damn feeling?

And all of us just looking for some meaning 
 G 
And while we wait for, for the sweeter days to 
Find us 
F       Am                G 
Sha-sha-sha-sha-sha-shake off the devil's best 
Lurking 

And close your eyes, and let this music go

Through your heart

Stay with me now, oh, oh, oh 
                            F     Am     G 
Said I know it's hurting, I know it's hurting, I 
                  F Am G 
 Know it's hurting 

Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo
