I was s[E]taring at the [C]sky, just [G]looking for a [B7]star
To p[E]ray on, or [C]wish on, or so[G]mething like th[B7]at
I was [E]having a sweet fi[C]x of a [G]daydream of a [B7]boy
Whose re[F7]ality I knew, was a [Em]hopeless to be [A7]had
But then the[E] dove of [C]hope began its [G]downward s[B7]lope
And I be[E]lieved for a moment that[C] my chances
Were[G] approaching to be [B7]grabbed
But as it [E]came down [C]near, so did a [G]weary [F7]tear
I [Em]thought it was a [A7]bird, but it was j[F7]ust a paper bag
Chorus:
Hunger [G]hurts, and I [Cmaj7]want him s[F7]o bad, oh it [G]kills
'Cause I kn[G]ow I'm a [Cmaj7]mess he don't [F7]wanna clean up
I got to [G]fold 'cause these [Cmaj7]hands are too[F7] shaky to [G]hold
Hunger [Em7]hurts, but starving [A7]works, when it [F7]costs too much to [G]love[B7]
Verse 2:
[E]And I went [C]crazy a[G]gain today,
[B7]Looking for a [E]strand to climb, [C]looking for a [G]little hope[B7] [E]
[C]Baby said he [G]couldn't stay, [B7]wouldn't put his [F7]lips to mine
And a [Em]fail to kiss is a [A7]fail to cope
I said, '[E]Honey, I don't [C]feel so go[G]od, don't feel ju[B7]stified
[E]Come on put a [C]little love [G]here in my v[B7]oid,'
He said?'It's [E]all in your he[C]ad,'
and I said, 'So's [G]everything,' but he didn'[F7]t get it
I [Em]thought he was a [A7]man
But he was [F7]just a little boy
Chorus:
Hunger [G]hurts, and I [Cmaj7]want him s[F7]o bad, oh it [G]kills
'Cause I kn[G]ow I'm a [Cmaj7]mess he don't [F7]wanna clean up
I got to [G]fold 'cause these [Cmaj7]hands are too[F7] shaky to [G]hold
Hunger [Em7]hurts, but starving [A7]works, when it [F7]costs too much to [G]love
Hunger [Cmaj7]hurts, but I want him so [F7]bad, oh it ki[G]lls
'Cause I kn[G]ow I'm a [Cmaj7]mess he don't [F7]wanna clean up
I got to [G]fold 'cause these [Cmaj7]hands are too[F7] shaky to [G]hold
Hunger [Em7]hurts, but starving [A7]works, when, when it [F7]costs too much to [G]love
Oh, hunger [Cmaj7]hurts, and I want him so [F7]bad, oh it ki[G]lls
Because I [G]know I'm a [Cmaj7]mess he don't [F7]wanna clean up
I got to [G]fold 'cause these [Cmaj7]hands are too[F7] shaky to [G]hold
Hunger [Em7]hurts, but starving,[A7] it works,[F7] when it costs too much to [G]love
