Cause toC#mnight ain't the niBght for soF#mrrow
But you can hurt me tomoErrow,
E Okay... F# It's on you.A..uh-huh-uh-huh.E..uh yeah, okay.
E I used to be a strange fruit, Billie Holiday,
F# then you got me by my roots, took the pain away
A I tried to question our direction, that was my mistake
E I had to ask you where we going baby, Marvin Gaye
E I used to do it like Sinatra, do it my way
F# Now I'm the Fugee, you're my Lauryn Hill that got away
A I felt we had an At Last love, Etta James
E But now I'm wondering...
If what I heard is tErue
Then I know what you came to F#do
Love may be blind but I'm looking at yAou
So before you pull the trigger..E. did you ever consider?
{CHORUS}
(no chord) E B
This ain't a good time, But when is it ever
I know the Aperfect time, and baby that's Enever
So don't you C#mdare leave me Bnow
Throw my Aheart on the Eground
Cause toC#mnight ain't the Bnight for sF#morrow...
But you can hurt me tomoErrow,
EYou can hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me,
You can F#hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me,
You can Ahurt me tomorrow, You can hurt me tomorrow,
You can Ehurt me tomorrow but girl save it for tomorrow.
(chord pattern E F# A E repeats during verses)
If you can take a rain check on a stormy night
Then I will love you 'til you're old, like you're Betty White
You can hurt me any other day, pick a fight
But not on Monday, Tuesday, wednesday, Thursday, Friday night
And not the weekend either, cuz I got a song to write
I promise I'mma hear you out when the time is right
Let's have a talk, August 7, 20-99
At your place or mine?
{chorus}
EHey why you turn around and wF#alk away
I know you got a lot to Asay
And I really want to talk about it, E Just not today, not today.
Is there an instrument to measure all the heartache, and
A looking glass so we can see where all the magic went
I need a button I can push so we can start again
Cause girl you bring me to my knees, Nancy Kerrigan......
{chorus}
EYou can hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me,
You can F#hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me, You can hurt me,
You can Ahurt me tomorrow, You can hurt me tomorrow,
You can Ehurt me tomorrow but girl save it for tomorrow.
