Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 3 half steps down [ -3 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 3 to stay in the same key

Intro:
   Cm7  Bb
   Eb    Bb

Verse 1:
    Cm7           Bb
I'm sure it was nothing
        Eb                          Bb
But you never used to bring somebody else along
Cm7            Bb
Used to be our thing
Eb                         Bb
Going to a movie, then we wander home
Cm7                  Bb
All these little landmines
Eb                                    Bb
All these little things that one can read two ways
Cm7                              Bb
Like when you take every call outside
Cm7                              Bb
Seems that I've forgotten how to read your face

Pre-Chorus:
Dm                 Cm             F
But I know you too well to get it wrong

Chorus:
               Cm    Ebadd9      Bb
If you have to hurt me, hurt me once
               Cm    Ebadd9    Bb
If you have to end it, get it done
                   Eb       F       Gm
You have all these choices, I have none
Eb               Bb F       Eb
You're all that I have to lose
         Eb           Bb F     Eb
Couldn't hurt you if I wanted to
F                  Cm7     Bb
   I've decided on you

Interlude: Eb   Bb

Verse 2:
   Cm7           Bb
If you keep it going
     Eb                             Bb
Then one by one, the memories will start to blur
       Cm7           Bb
You'll ruin the good ones
      Eb                              Bb
But I guess my photo album's none of your concern
      Cm7               Bb
Don't humor me with kindness
        Eb                            Bb
There's nothing kind about a hundred small betrayals

Pre-Chorus:
Dm                Cm                  F
If you love me at all, you'll kill it now

Chorus:
               Cm    Ebadd9      Bb
If you have to hurt me, hurt me once
               Cm    Ebadd9    Bb
If you have to end it, get it done
                   Eb       F       Gm
You have all these choices, I have none
Eb               Bb F       Eb
You're all that I have to lose
         Eb           Bb F     Eb
Couldn't hurt you if I wanted to
F              Cm7  Eb               Bb
  I decided on you, I've decided on you

Outro:
               Cm7
And if I'm disappointed
            Ebadd9                   Bb
It's 'cause you're not the person I knew
            Eb      F                   Gm
If I had it my way, I'd be kinder than you
    Cm7          Gm   F        Eb    
I'm sure I'll forgive you, and soon
     Cm7            Gm    F      Eb    
I'm ashamed but I'm proud of it, too
F              Bb
  I decided on you
