[Intro] (keyboard)  E   D   E   D


[Verse 1]

E             D               E       D
I've tried to let you down so easy
E           D               E       D
I'd like to still be just a friend
E              D          E       D
We shared such memories together
E            D                 E       D
But all good things come to an end

[Chorus]

And you, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard

[Verse 2]

E          D                 E       D
You wonder when you're gonna see me
E            D              E       D
I might just pass this way again
E          D                 E       D
Until then don't you wait up for me
E              D               E       D
'Cause now I'm getting’ in the wind

You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
C                    F

So hard,          so hard


[Bridge]

G#                        F#
Don't you remember what I told you from the start
G#                           F#                         A
When people fall in love too much it can cause a broken heart
                            G
That won't mend easy but if you just wait sometime
A                         G
I may come walking to you in the sunshine


[Chorus]

C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
    C                    F
No, you, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
G
Grass is a-growin' and I gotta be a-goin'

C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard
C                    F
You, girl, shouldn't take it so hard  (fadeout)
