You didn't have to be so nice..you didn't 
              G
have to be so kind.
                          C

      G
break mine?


#1.
G                      C       G
I've never been a one, just anyone, enough,
   D                              G
to lay bare my heart and soul and say, hey, there 

they are, take 'em.
                   C                     G
I don't understand anyone, woman or man, who 
                    D              G
can take somebody's heart and just break 'em anyway.


CHORUS:
G                        C         D
You didn't have to be so nice..you didn't 
              G
have to be so kind.
                          C
Love, there are plenty of hearts beggin' 
              G                 D
to be broken..why'd you have to go and 
      G
break mine?
