Lucinda Williams: vocal
Gurf Morlix:      electric guitar, acoutic guitar, mandolin, harmony vocal

      C#                           F#
You always find a way to hurt my pride
     G#7                           C#
If I`m not crying you're not satisfied
     C#                              F#
I don't know why you want to hurt me so
                                   C#
But if you're trying to break my heart 
                G#7         C#
You don't have very far to go.

                F#                        C#
You don't have very far to go before the heartache begins
     F#                          C#                G#7
I already feel the sadness of a heartbreak setting in.


You can't love me and still love to hurt me so

If you're trying to break my heart

You don't have very far to go.


Instrumental


You don't have very far to go before the heartache begins

I already feel the sadness of a heartbreak setting in.


You're turning down the flame of love to long

If you've tryin' to break my heart

You don't have very far to go.

If you're tryin' to break my heart
You don't have very far to go.
