Standard (EADGBE)

I've heard them all talking

I guess you have too

Adding flickers to the flame

How I've treated you

Oh I take the blame

But let me say - that they don't know

The fools don't know - the really don't know

That I really didn't mean to hurt you.

Oh darling, I didn't mean to hurt you.

Please believe me when I say

That I didn't mean to hurt you.

Oh, I didn't mean to hurt you girl.

Whatever they tell you

There's more I could say

Lending motion to the wheel

How you built me up

When I was falling down

But who knows - you just might find

You just might find that I'm just your kind

And I really didn't mean to hurt you.

Oh, darling

I didn´t mean to hurt you.

Deep down inside, I didn't mean to hurt you girl.

I didn´t mean to hurt you.

And tho' I was looking there for something

Some things have no meaning

While I was looking there for something

Everything had gone

And still as I looked; I lived

And still as I lived; I wondered.
