[C]
[Em] You know, [Dm] I'm glad you could [Am] find time to see me today
[C]
[Em] Because I think it's time [Dm] you and I had a serious [C] talk
[Em] For days now, [Dm] I've been trying to [F] call you
[G] Trying to see [Em] you
[Dm]
Don't [Am] you know how I feel?
[C]
[Em] Don't you [Dm] know that you can't measure the [Am] pleasure [C] by the hurt I'm feeling right now?
[Dm] Can't you see it in [C] my eyes?
Can't you feel it in my voice?
[E] I have [C] a need for you
[G] Every little [Dm] bit [Am] hurts
[C]
Every little [Dm] bit hurts
[F] Every night I [Em] cry, every night [Am] I sigh, every night I [G] wonder why
You treat me cold, yet you warm
[Gb] [F]
Every little hurt counts
Every [Eb] little hurt
[F]
[A] [C] You say you're coming [Em] home, yet you never fall
[Am] You leave me all alone, [G] my love is [D] strong
You
[Gb] [F]
can't take this loneliness
[C] You give [Em] me
[Am]
[G] No, [Gb] no, [F] baby
And I can't go on
Giving [C] my life [C] away
[Em] [Am]
[G] [Abm] [Am]
To me
[Ab] [Am]
Darling, [A] you'll see
[Ab] [Am] I can give you all the things [E] that you wanted [Dm] once before
[Am] [Dm]
[F] If [C] you will stay [F] [G] with me
With [D]
[G]
me
[G] Baby
Every little [Dm] bit
[Am] hurts
[C]
[G] [Dm]
[F] [C] To you, I'm a [Em] toy
And you're the [Am] boy who has to say [G] who am I
[D] To play [G]
with me, is hurting [Gb] me
[F]
Every [F] little hurt counts
Every [Eb] little hurt
[G] [C] You say you're coming [Em] home, yet you never fall
You [Am] leave me all [G] alone, my love is [C] strong
You [G]
can't [Gb] [F]
take this [G] loneliness

[Am] [C] hurts me, [G] baby
[C] Baby, hurts me, baby
[C] I
[Em] [Dm] guess there's not much more for [Am] me to say to you
[C]
You [G] seem to have said it all
[C] Oh, I could probably tell you a few lies
Make [D] up a few silly alibis
[F] [C] But that wouldn't do right now
[G] That just wouldn't [Dm] do
[C] I feel [G] right now you need to know the [Em] real
And [D] the real [Am] is
[C]
[Em] I really love you, Tina
[D]
[C] I acted strange and distant
[Dm] But now I know
[Am] I [C] didn't mean to hurt you
[Em] I really didn't mean to [Dm] hurt you, baby
In [Am] my [C] heart, I feel I can [C] change
[D] So please don't [C] leave me, Tina
Please, baby, don't leave [Dm] me
[Am] Don't leave me, [C] baby
[D]
