Hurt

I saw all of these versions of Hurt on here, and I saw that they were all messed up.
This posts will correct them all.
Fingerpick
(Play throughout until (G) chord at the end of the first verse)
1&234 1&2 3&4 1&234 1&2 3&4 1&234
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
When at the (G) chord here, go to even 4/4 strumming
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear my crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stain of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
When at the (G) chord here, go to even 4/4 strumming
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Strum the final (G) chord once and let it ring.
