This is a very simple song, it has a lot of keyboard effects
throughout the song, but the guitarwork is very well done.

Six o'clock in the morning
My head is ready to explode
I can't believe I made it home alive
I don't remember where I went
Or what I was drinking
But I know its made me sick
And i'm not denying
That I get this way
When I try to get over you
I get this way
When I try to get over you...
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
I try so hard to hate you
But it only makes things worse
I only end up hating myself
And as my hatred goes
So do the lies
It's hard to face the truth sometimes
God I feel so useless
God I hate myself
When I try to get over you
I hate myself
How will I ever get over you
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
And after all this time
You'd think I'd understand the way you feel
but no
D E
I only think about myself
F G Bb
And its driving you away
A
I always knew it would one day
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love
D Bb
Sometimes it hurts
G A
So much to lose the one you love

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official STABBING WESTWARD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
