D G Bm A D
The cuts they run so deep as to pierce my heart
G Bm A
And leave me wounded inside
D G Bm A
And the cuts that scar my memory
D G Bm A
Is the hardest ones to hide
G Bm
I've tested the waters a time or two
Em D9 D
Now I'd rather keep my feet on the shore
D G Bm A
Cause love is just a foolish game
G A D G Bm A D G Bm A
That I've played somewhere before
D G Bm A
I'll let love slip by my fingertips
D G Bm A
As my heart stands shattered and frail
D G Bm A
When I run the dust will fly from my feet
D G Bm A
As it covers up my trail
G Bm
I've tested the waters a time or two
Em D9 D
Now I'd rather keep my feet on the shore
D G Bm A
Cause love is just a foolish game
G A D G Bm A D G Bm A
That I've played somewhere before
G Bm
You can run but you can't hide
Em D
From shattered dreams that take your heart for a ride
G Bm
You get yourself together get on the right track
Em G
Just then you realize your heart ain't coming back
A
It ain't coming back
