How?s it goin?, might be what I?d say
G D/F# Em
Well you broke my heart you know

God I?ve missed you

Since you went away

You?re lookin? well
Bm
Or go to hell
A D
Might be what I?d say
There?s time I?ve been so angry
I could put my fist right through the wall
And then there?s times I?ve come so close
To givin? you a call
I love you and I hate you
All at the same time
Then I pray you?ll come back to me
Before I lose my mind
