       A#             F          C
It's funny that way, you can get used
        D#            A#
To the tears and the pain
  F      C           Dm  A#
What a child will believe
           C     F
You never loved me

Chorus:
D#         F       C
You can't hurt me now
       A#          Am          G
I got away from you, I never thought I would
D#         F        C                    A#  Am
You can't make me cry, you once had the power
         G                    F  C
I never felt so good about myself

Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father I have sinned

Chorus

Am         G                   C
Oh Father you never wanted to live that way
G                   Em
You never wanted to hurt me
  F                C
Why am I running away - x2

Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too

Chorus:
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, I never thought I would
You can't make me cry, You once had the power
I never felt so good about
You can't hurt me now, I got away from you
I never thought I would, You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself
