Chords for Alec Benjamin - Cause It Hurts (Lyrics)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I had a friend I knew in [F] the ninth grade and [Am] he didn't come to class one day
Cause [Dm] they found something [F] inside his brain so they sent [Am] him home
_ _ So [Dm] I went to see him [F] after school [Am] I said, is there something I can do that
[Dm] Might make you feel [F] more comfortable And he told [Am] me no _ _
He said, I'm [F] happy that you made it Please don't treat me like your patient
[Dm] I don't need [F] more medication [Am] _ The _ _ [F] only way I know that [Am] I'm alive is cause
it [D] hurts So [F] anything that takes [A] away my pain [Am] will make
it [D] worse Cause if [F] I'm numb I might as well [Am] be underneath
[G] the dirt [Dm] The only [F] way I know that [Am] I'm alive, that
is cause [Dm] it hurts, _ [F] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ is cause [Dm] it hurts [C] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ [G] And [Dm] I won't forget the [F] things he said
[Am] Every time I start to feel depressed To [Dm] be grateful that [F] I still have breath down
inside [Am] my lungs _ _
[C] Cause [Dm] without the darkness [F] there's no light
And [Am] without the pain there'd be no life So [Dm] even when [F] it hurts inside I won't try
[Am] to run _ [D] _ [Dm] I'll be happy that I made it
[A] I'll be open, I'll [D] embrace it I won't [Dm] take no medication
[Am] _ _ _ _ [Dm]
The only [F] way I know that I'm [Am] alive is cause it hurts
[F] So anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
[Dm] Cause if [F] I'm numb I might as well be [C] underneath the dirt
[Dm] The only [F] way I know that [Am] I'm alive, that I'm [G] alive is [Dm] cause it hurts
_ [F] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [E] Is cause [F] it hurts _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
[E] The [Dm] only way I know [C] that I'm alive is [G] cause
it hurts [Dm] So anything [F] that takes [Am] away my pain [G] will make
it worse [D] Cause if I'm numb [F] I might as [Am] well be [D] underneath
the dirt The only [C] way I know [C] that I'm alive, that
I'm alive is cause [Dm] it hurts
_ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _ [G] _
It's [Dm] cause it hurts
_ [F] _ _ _ [G] _
_ [C] It's cause [Dm] it hurts
[F] _ _ _
_ [G] _ It's cause it hurts _ _
