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

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...
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love 
Sometimes it hurts 
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
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love 
Sometimes it hurts 
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
I only think about myself  
And its driving you away 
I always knew it would one day
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love 
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love 
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love 
Sometimes it hurts 
So much to lose the one you love
