This is my personal acoustic version,ideally played without any other
instruments, just the singing and the guitar. Also, on the CD, the last but
one chorus has the chords strummed singularly. Enjoy :)

[F] [Am] [Dm] [Bb] [C] [C6] [C7]
[F]
I see lovers in the streets walking,
without a care.
They're wearing out loud
[Am] [Dm]
like there's something in the air
[Bb]
Oooooh, and i don't care
[F]
They're treading lightly
No they, don't sink in
There's no tracks to follow
[Am] [Dm]
they don't care where they going
[Bb]
hmm
[Bb]
And if they're lucky and they'll,
they'll get to see and if they're
really really lucky they'll
[C] [C6] [C7]
get to feel..
[Bb] [C]
And it kicks so hard,
[Bb]
it breaks your bones.
[C]
Cuts so deep
[Bb]
it hits your soul.
[C]
Tears your skin and
[F] [Bb] [C]
makes your blood flow.
[Bb] [C]
It's better that you know,
[F]
That love is hard.
[F]
Love takes hostages,
gives them pain.
gives someone the power to
[Am] [Dm]
hurt you again and again
[Bb]
oooh, but they don't care
[Bb]
And if they're lucky and they'll,
they'll get to see and if they're
[C]
really really lucky they'll
they'll get to feel.
[Bb]
And if they're, they're truly blessed
and they're get to believe
and if you're dammed, you'll never
[C] [C6] [C7]
let yourself be diseased.
[Bb] [C]
And it kicks so hard,
[Bb]
it breaks your bones.
[C]
Cuts so deep
[Bb]
it hits your soul.
[C]
Tears your skin and
[F] [Bb] [C]
makes your blood flow.
[Bb] [C]
It's better that you know,
[F]
That love is hard.
Hmmmmmmm...
[Bb] [C]
And it kicks so hard,
[Bb]
it breaks your bones.
[C]
Cuts so deep
[Bb]
it hits your soul.
[C]
Tears your skin and
[F] [Bb] [C]
makes your blood flow.
[Bb] [C]
It's better that you know,
[Bb] [C]
And it kicks so hard,
[Bb]
it breaks your bones.
[C]
Cuts so deep
[Bb]
it hits your soul.
[C]
Tears your skin and
[F] [Bb] [C]
makes your blood flow.
[Bb] [C]
It's better that you know,
[F] [C]
That love is hard.
[F] [C] [F] [C]
love is hard, love is hard.
[Bb]
If it was easy,
[C] [F]
it wouldn't mean nothing though.
