Only Worse

Capo: 2nd fret

[Intro]
D  A7  G   D  A7  G
 
[Verse 1]
 
  D                      A7                         G
I just dropped in 'cause I could use a friend and a little bit of consolation
    D                            A7                 G
I'm hangin' by a thread from the southern end of my rope
       D                      A7            Bm            G
If you really wanna know I'll do my best to explain my situation
Em                                A7
Maybe I can find the words if the tears don't get me first
 
 
[Chorus]
                D                                A
It's kinda like fallin' from the sky when you're up a mile high
         G   G/F#        G
And your parachute won't open
                 D                             A                           G
It's kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom When the bottom drops out
    D          A               Bm               G
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
                   D        A7      G           D
It's kinda like a heartache,  only worse, only worse
 
[Verse 2]
  D                A7                  G
It wasn't my first brush with love but this one was the deepest
    D                   A7                       G
Yeah I've been blue but this time it's closer to black
       D              A7             Bm           G
I swore I'd never get hurt again but here I am in pieces
Em                            A7
When this one broke my heart, that was just the start
 
[Chorus]
                D                                A
It's kinda like fallin' from the sky when you're up a mile high
         G   G/F#        G
And your parachute won't open
                 D                             A                           G
It's kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom When the bottom drops out
    D          A               Bm               G
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
                   D        A7      G           D
It's kinda like a heartache,  only worse, only worse
 
[Bridge]
                Bm      Em   A
It's kinda like bein'    cut open
           G                   D
Kinda like bein' burned at the stake
            Bm      Bm/A   Em    G
Kinda like drownin' in the ocean
                A7           
Knowin' there's no help on the way
 
(KEY CHANGE)
 
[Chorus]
                E                                B
It's kinda like fallin' from the sky when you're up a mile high
         A   A/G#        A
And your parachute won't open
           E                             B                            A
Kinda like clingin' to the bottom of the bottom when the bottom drops out
    E          B               C#m             A
The only way I know to say how bad her leavin' hurts
                   E        B7      A           E
It's kinda like a heartache,  only worse, only worse
