Strum
D-DU-UDU
We  both know that I shouldn't be here
 This is wrong
 And baby it's killing  me
 It's killing  you
 But both  of us trying to be strong
I've  got somewhere else to be
 Promises to keep
Someone  else who loves me
 And trusted  me fast asleep
I've  made up my mind
 There is no turning back
She's  been good to me
 And she  deserves better  than that
 Chorus/coro:
It's  the hardest thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To look you  in the eye
 And tell  you i don't love you
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have  to lie
 To show  no emotion
 When you  start to cry
I  can't let you see
 What you mean  to me
 When my hands  are tied
 And my heart’s  not free
 We're not meant to be
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To turn  around and walk away
 Pretending  i don't love you
I  know we'll meet again
 Fate has a place and time
So  you can get on with your life
 I've  got to be cruel to be  kind
Like  Doctor Zhivago
 All my love I’ll be sending
 And you'll  never know
 'Cause  there can be no happy ending
 Chorus/coro:
It's  the hardest thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To look you  in the eye
 And tell  you i don't love you
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have  to lie
 To show  no emotion
 When you  start to cry
I  can't let you see
 What you mean  to me
 When my hands  are tied
 And my heart’s  not free
 We're not meant to be
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To turn  around and walk away
 Pretending  i don't love you
I've  made up my mind
 There is no turning back
She's  been good to me
 And she  deserves better  than that
 Chorus/coro:
It's  the hardest thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To look you  in the eye
 And tell  you i don't love you
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have  to lie
 To show  no emotion
 When you  start to cry
I  can't let you see
 What you mean  to me
 When my hands  are tied
 And my heart’s  not free
 We're not meant to be
 It's the hardest  thing
 I'll ever have to  do
 To turn  around and walk away
 Pretending  i don't love you
