Verse
[G] [Bm] [G]
It gets harder every day, but I can't seem to shake the pain
[Bm]
I'm trying to find the words to say, please stay
[G] [Bm]
It's written all over my face, I can't
[C]
Function the same when you're not here
[Em]
I'm calling your name and no one's there
[C] [D] [G]
And I hope one day you'll see nobody has it easy,
[Bm] [C]
I still can't believe you found somebody new
[D]
But I wish you the best, I guess.
Chorus
[G] [Bm] [C]
'Cause everybody knows, that nobody really knows
[Em] [G]
How to make it work or how to ease the hurt
[G] [Bm] [C]
We've heard it all before, that everybody knows
[Em] [G]
How to make it right, I wish we gave it one more try (try)
[Em]
One more try (try)
[C]
One more try
[D] [G]
'Cause everybody knows, but nobody really knows

Baby don’t fill up your head, with he said, she said

It seems like you just don’t know, (don’t know)
[C]
The radios on, you tuning me out

I’m trying to speak, you’re turning me down

Oh, just an ordinary man
