[G#]It gets harder every [Cm7]day, but I can't seem to shake the [G#]pain

[G#]It's written all over my [Cm7]face, I can't
[C#]Function the same when you're not here
I'm [Fm]calling your name and no one's there
C# D#_high G#
And I hope one day you'll see nobody has it easy,
I still can't [Cm7]believe you found somebody [C#]new

Chorus:
[G#]'Cause everybody [Cm7]knows, that nobody really [C#]knows
Fm D#_low
How to make it work or how to ease the hurt
[G#]We've heard it all [Cm7]before, that everybody [C#]knows
