verse 1:
G Am
Well the pain’s the hardest thing to remove
G Am
You said all you had to say and you had nothing to prove
G Am
Young love can bend and break easy enough
C Am G
Instead of getting married before we split up
 
Pre-Chorus
G Am
You said you’d never lie, you’d never lie
G Am
But you’ve never tied, No you’ve never tried
G Am
I guess breaking up is easy for some
C Am G
But all men know what you left, the ink had run
 
Chorus:
G Am
30 years old and you’re born again

A brand new you now you need, brand new friends

How many guys have you had under your spell
C Am7 G
And why are you so c.r.u.e.l.

verse 2:
Funny how things can change so fast
You were my future but now you’re my past
You were waiting but it never was delivered
She wanted all those things that I couldn’t give her
 
Pre-Chorus 2:
You need someone, Yh you need someone
Picking you up everytime I am gone
You said you shiver when we’re not together
But that cold that you’re feeling, well it isn’t the weather
 
Chorus:
30 years old and you’re born again
A brand new you now you need, brand new friends
How many guys have you had under your spell
And why are you so c.r.u.e.l.

30 years old like it never ends
Despite all the cracks cause your, heart doesn’t bend
How many guys have you had under your spell
And why are you so c.r.u.e.l.
 
30 years old and you’re born again
A brand new you now you need, brand new friends
How many guys have you had under your spell
And why are you so c.r.u.e.l.

C Am G
Why are you so c.r.u.e.l.
