Intro:
A D  E  A

Chorus:
A                        D
  The only time I feel a pain
E7                          A
  Is in the sunshine or the rain
A                     A7      D
  And I don't feel no hurt at all
E7                                A
  Unless you count when teardrops fall
A                       A7     D
 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
E7                           A
 And it only hurts me when I cry 

Verse 1: 
N.C.                            
You couldn't tell it by this
E7
smile
E7                       A
  But my recovery took a while
A                                 E7
  I worked for days and nights on end
E7                       A
  Just to walk and talk again
A7                              D
  You can't believe the time it takes
D                        E7
 To heal a heart once it breaks

Chorus:
E7                       D
  The only time I feel a pain
E7                          A
  Is in the sunshine or the rain
A                     A7      D
  And I don't feel no hurt at all
E7                                A
  Unless you count when teardrops fall
A                       A7     D
 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
E7                           A
 And it only hurts me when I cry 

Instrumental:
A D  E  A   D   E   A

Bridge:
A                      E7
Oh maybe every now and then
E7                         A
 I have a small heartache again
A                             E7
 You wouldn't know to look at me
E7                                 A   A7
 There's tiny scars that you can't see
A7                       D
 It was a struggle to survive
D                        E7
 I'm probably lucky I'm alive
 
Chorus:
N.C.
The only time I feel a 
D                        
pain
E7                          A
  Is in the sunshine or the rain
A                             D
  And I don't feel no hurt at all
E7                                A
  Unless you count when teardrops fall
A                              D
 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
E7                           A
 And it only hurts me when I cry 
 
Outro:
A                             D
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
E7                       A
