Drive By-Truckers - World Of Hurt

Tune Guitar down One full Step


D                                                             Am                  
Once upon a time, my advice to you would have been go out and find yourself a w***e
      C                                                               G 
But I guess I've grown up, because I don't give that kind of advice anymore

                D
It's Gonna be a world of hurt
                Am
It's Gonna be a world of hurt
                C                        G
It's Gonna be a world of hurt

(Continue Chord Progression throughout)      

I was 27 when I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn't the answer
So I decided, maybe I should find a way to make this world work out for me      
And my good friend Paul was 83 when he told me; that "To love is to feel pain"
And I thought about that alot back then and I've thought about that again and again

Chorus

D
"To love is to feel pain" there ain't no way around it 
The very nature of love is to grieve when it is over
The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits 
Better role them now before something else goes wrong        
No, it's a wonderful world, if you can put aside the sadness
And hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you
Better take the time to know it there ain't no way around it 
If you feel anything at all

Chorus

So if what you have is working for you, or you think that it can stand a reasonable chance
and whatever's broken seems fixable and nothing's beyond repair
If you still think about each other and smile before you remember how screwed up it's gotten
or maybe dream of a time less rotten
Remember, it ain't too late to take a deep breath and throw yourself into it with everything you got 
It's great to be alive
