[Verse]
D (Strum palm muted D through first verse until drums kick in)
You are my sword.
Your love is its own reward.
My heart, I have found,
Gets carved surely by the pound.
[Verse]
God knows. I tried,
Tried to hold you with all my might
But time has won,
And I could never be that strong.
[Chorus]
(Don't cry) I
couldn't be th
at strong,
(Don't cry) That used to be my favourite song.
(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
Fill my eyes whenever we meet,
A G (On the A they hit 3rd and 4th fret on the A string also here)
It's always bittersweet.
[Verse]
I cut and I bl
eed.
You seem to find that so hard to believe!
That's just too, too bad.
You could never touch the love that we had.
[Chorus]
(Don't cry) Fo
r the love we
had,
(Don't cry) Sometimes we try to take it back.
(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
Kiss my cheeks whenever we meet.
A G (On the A they hit 3rd and 4th fret on the A string also here)
It's always bittersweet.
[SOLO]
[Chorus]
(Don't Cry) Fo
r a love-gone-
wrong
(Don't cry) That used to be my favourite song
(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
Fill my eyes whenever we meet.
A G (On the A they hit 3rd and 4th fret on the A string also here)
Anyway...
[Verse]
We've grown an
d times change
.
When we meet now it feels so strange.
I hold you like a sword
You won't cut me like you did before.
It's always bittersweet.
E A D A til end with little guitar solo bit
