Johnny Cash - Hurt

.crd file wrote by Luke Hudson

This is an excellent comeback song from Johnny Cash from his new
album 'The Man Comes Around'. This song was first performed by 'Nine
Inch Nails' and then adopted (and changed) by Johnny Cash.

NOTE! PLEASE READ!
* means instead of just strumming, pick the first two strings that 
are meant to be played and strum the rest.




Intro (*): Am, C, D (2x)




Verse 1 (*):


Am     C       D     Am
    I hurt myself today

    C     D       Am
To see if I still feel

  C     D      Am
I focus on the pain

    C    D            Am
The only thing that's real

    C      D       Am
The needle tears a hole

    C     D      Am
The old familiar sting

       C       D     Am
Try to kill it all away

          C     D     G(strum)
But I remember everything



Chorus (strum all):

C             F                C
What have I become?

            G
my sweetest friend

C          F
everyone I know

     C           G
goes away in the end

C                 F
you could have it all

C
my empire of dirt

G              C
I will let you down

F               Am (*)
I will make you hurt




Verse 2 (*):

  C          D       Am
I wear this crown of thorns

  C      D      Am
upon my liar's chair

C       D      Am
full of broken thoughts

C     D     Am
I cannot repair

   C        D         Am
beneath the stains of time

    C       D    Am
the feeling disappears

C       D       Am
you are someone else

C    D           G(strum)
I am still right here




Chorus (strum all):


C             F                 C
What have I become?

            G
my sweetest friend

C          F
everyone I know

     C           G
goes away in the end

C                 F
you could have it all

C
my empire of dirt

G              C
I will let you down

F               C
I will make you hurt

G                C
if I could start again

  F              C
a million miles away

G            C
I would keep myself

F    
I would find a way
