[Verse 1]
A D A D
You were a pain girl, a thorn in my side
A D A D
Drove me insane girl, a white-knuckle ride
A D
So why do I go lookin'''' through old photographs
A D
And chase you down the hallways of our checkered past
A D
Hold on for dear life and keep the fire fed
A D E
I oughta let go but instead
[Chorus]
A
It''''s like I''''m pressing on a bruise
D
To see if it still hurts
A D
Right now that''''s all I''''ve got left of you
A D
Everybody knows that just makes it worse
A D
But still I do
[Verse 2]
A D A D
I could start a new life, I could move on
A D A D
I could do a drive by, and see if you''''re home
A D
Now there''''s a fine, fine line between a memory
A D
And something any shrink would call an injury
A D
But it''''s not over long as you''''re still hurtin'''' me
A D E
And as I turn onto your street
[Chorus]
A
It''''s like I''''m pressing on a bruise
D
To see if it still hurts
A D
Right now that''''s all I''''ve got left of you
A D
Everybody knows that just makes it worse
A D
But still I do
[Bridge]
E D E D E D
Still I do, still I do, still love you
[Verse 3]
A
But she''''s the kind of girl puts your world on hold
D
Walk the halls and you check your phone
A D
Gave up the ghost and the ghost keeps holdin'''' on
A
And you run from the sun but you curse the rain
D
Lost the love so you nurse the pain
A D E
Goin'''' on and on, singin'''' that same song
A
But she''''s gone
(I can''''t let it alone)
D
And you get drunk on those glory days
A
(I can''''t just let it heal)
D
With a broken heart and a bitter taste
A
(No, I can''''t just let it go)
D
Well, you light it up as she burns you down
A
(I can''''t just let it heal)
D
You''''re smokin'''' those memories to the ground
A
(Like I''''m pressing on a bruise)
D A
Yeah, that''''s the thing about love and pain
D A
They may look alike but they''''re not the same
(No, I can''''t just let it go)
D
You''''ve got to let it go go go
A
(No, I can''''t just let it heal)
(fade)
