C              F
It was the 36th time that he broke my heart
           C              Dm          G
It was the 80th time that I'd fallen apart
           C              F
I knew from the start it was gonna be rough
    G                 C
But not as painful as this

[Bridge]
E
Once I didn't have money
A
Twice I forgot his name
C
Then I put on my make-up wrong
   Dm                      G
My hair was a big mess and so was my dress
C
I remember those nights
      F                            G
I was feeling real down but then a chance would soon come aro-und

[Chorus]
           C              F
It was the 36th time that he broke my heart
           C              Dm          G
It was the 80th time that I'd fallen apart
           C              F
I knew from the start it was gonna be rough
    G                 C
But not as painful as this

[Verse]
E
Once he asked for my number
A
Twice he asked for my name
C
But I was nervous and lost my mind
   Dm                      G
I gave him a number but it was my Mom's
C
I remember those nights
F                            G                            C
I was feeling real down but then a chance would soon come around

B
Got to move on
Db
I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
E
Gotta move on but I don't think I can carry on, no
D                     F
I couldn't go on, no, I couldn't go on
D                      F
It seemed like my life was falling apart

(Whispered)
C                        F
It was the 36th time that he broke my heart
 C            Ab
Or was it 37 or 38?

G
I remember way back
C
When my life was laid back
F                        Dm
No obligations or responsibilities
G              Eb       C              Ab
Didn't have to work or, didn't have no chores
A            G               D                G
Only thing I had in mind was looking good each day
A
Then my life was rolling
D                Bb
Had to work each morning
B                A
Pay the bills and walk the dog
E               A
Became my daily life

[Bridge]
A
But the more you suffer
F
You feel better when it's over
E          C
That's for sure

C
And so when pain comes along
F
Just go with the flow
C
Don't turn your back to your problems
              F
Just give it a go
C
Your troubles in life
F
Will eventually serve you
G                           C
As a drop of spice in your li-fe

[Chorus]
   D                      G
It was the 36th time that he broke my heart
   D                      E
It was the 80th time that I'd fallen apart
     D                      G
I knew from the start it was gonna be rough
    A               D
But not as painful as this

[Verse]
E
When pain comes along
A
Just go with the flow
E
Don't turn your back to your problems
A
Just give it a go
E
Your troubles in life
A
Will eventually serve you
E                          B
As a drop of spice in your life

E
Keep your head up!
