[Verse]
Em
Once upon a time, a boy lived
C
In another world.
Am
Everything was clear and simple,
D B7
Then he met a girl.
Em
Suddenly, a shroud came over
C
All he thought was true.
Am
Everywhere the fog expanded
D B7
And the darkness grew.
Am G
When at last the skies had cleared,
Am G B7
Innocence had disappeared.
Em
Now a rusty man is standing,
C
Planning his attack.
Am
Long ago, you'd be forgiven,
D B7 Em D C D Ebdim
But you hurt him; he's Hurting You Right Back.
[Verse]
Em
When the shock of cruel rejection
C
Faded into grey,
Am
His resolve began to harden,
D B7
Growing day by day.
Em
He believed a time would come when
C
They would meet again,
Am
So he lived in preparation,
D B7
And he would not bend.
Am G
Then, one day, that moment came,
Am D B7
Anger blazing in a flame.
Em
All the pain she made him suffer
C
Nearly made him crack,
Am
But, instead, he lived to tell her,
D B7 Em D C D Ebdim
"You hurt me. I'm Hurting You Right Back."

Em F
Did it make you feel good to see a man on his knees?
Em F
Did your pride make you deaf to the sound of his pleas?
Em F
Well, the man gave you everything he ever possessed,
Em F
But you thought he was a fake and put his love to the test.
Em F
I wonder if you knew just how unhappy he felt
Em F
When he sobered up and realized the hand he was dealt?
Em F
You said you were an angel, but your heart, it was black.
Em
You destroyed his self-assurance; now he's Hurting You Right Back!

[Verse]
Em
Many years have come and gone since
C
That eventful day.
Am
Now he's put the past behind him,
D B7
And it stays that way.
Em
She resides beyond the mist in
C
Some forgotten past
Am
Growing dim as grains of sand move
D B7
Through the hourglass.
Am G
Now he takes a different view
Am D B7
When he meets somebody new.
Em
Many things were said that evening
C
That he won't retract.
Am
If you disregard his feelings,
D B7 Em D C D Ebdim
He'll respond by Hurting You Right Back.
