Sticks And Stones

{name: Verse 1} G C G C You would have kept those words on your tongue, G C G C If you had known the hurt they had done. G C G C While your fists stay by, right by your side, G C G C Your words they bruise me deep inside. {name: Chorus} C D G C I'd rather have sticks and stones and broken bones C D Em than the words you say to me, C D G C Cause I know bruises heal and cuts will seal Em D G but your words beat the life from me. Verse 2 (same chords as Verse 1) Sometimes your words are thick as lead, You swing them strong upside my head. But what hasn't k*lled has made me strong, So i'll take my scars and move along. {name: Chorus} {name: Bridge} D G C Goodbye is the best way that I know, D G C To forgive and still be letting go. {name: Chorus}
