[Verse 1]
G            D          Em            C
Too young to understand why she went away
G          D          Em             C
Too old to admit that I wouldn't be okay
     G                     D
So I hardened my heart that day
     Em                       C
As I wiped the feelings off my face
    G                      D
She said it was her and it wasn't my fault
Em             C
Wasn't my fault

[Chorus]
C                         Em                 D
But when somebody leaves, just like they all do
             Em                      D
It's easy to think that it might be you
C                         Em                 D
When somebody leaves, like they all do

G     D  C
It ain't easy

[Verse 2]
G             D          Em                   C
His eyes told me we were through and he'd be okay
G             D          Em                C
I just looked down as my true love walked away
       G                     D
And it hardened my heart that day
      Em                       C
But I wiped the feelings off my face
   G                      D
He said it was him and it wasn't my fault
Em             C
 Was it my fault?

[Chorus]
C                         Em                 D
But when somebody leaves, just like they all do
             Em                      D
It's easy to think, that it might be you
C                         Em                 D
When somebody leaves, like they all do
G     D C
It ain't easy
G D C

[Bridge]
    G                      D
But I will stay strong and I will stay busy
  Em                 C            G
And I won't lean too much to your side
       D                  Em       C
And in July we'll call it freedom
    G                       D
And one day this sheen that covers my eyes
        Em              C
It will melt away it'll fall
                    G
Drip down by the wayside
  D         Em      C
I just need time

[Verse 3]
G             D          Em               C
This town was feeling so small and I needed space
   G           D                     Em                C
So I packed my things in my blue suitcase and I drove away
       G                     D
But it hardened my heart that day
        Em                       C
When he wiped the feelings off his face
          G                          D
'Cause he thought it was him, but it wasn't his fault
  Em          C*
No, it was just me

[Chorus]

C                         Em                 D
But when somebody leaves, like we all do
        Em                       C
It's so easy to think that it's you
C                         Em                 D
When somebody leaves, like we all do

         Em   C
It ain't ea---sy
         G    D
It ain't ea---sy
         Em   C
It ain't ea---sy
         G
It ain't easy...
