D                   G         D
When the day is long and the night,
                     G   D
The night is yours alone

When you're sure you've
      G             D              G
Had enough of this life, well hang on

Chorus:
Em                  A Em            A  Em
Don't let yourself go,  everybody cries
               A         D   G
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (Hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (Hold on)
If you think you've had too much
Of this life, well, hang on

Chorus:
'Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
And everybody hurts

Don't throw your hand, oh no,

C                           G
When you feel like you're alone,
C                         Am
No, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much
Of this life to hang on

Chorus:
Well, everybody hurts
Sometimes, everybody cries
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
And everybody hurts
Sometimes

So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts
No, no, no, no, no, you're not alone
