[Intro 1]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
Careless [G]words,
they'll break your heart
[D]Those careless words,
they'll tear you apart
[G]I barely heard, but I can't believe
[D]those careless words
you just said to [G]me
Well if I didn't know you bet[C]ter,
I'd [D]swear you was joking [G]around
When I read your [C]letter,
you [D]said that you was coming to town
[G]I met you downtown for din[C]ner
[D]It's been a long, long [G]time
But the taste in your mouth
turned [C]bitter
When you [D]started talking
about the actual crime
Of those [G]careless words
That break your [D]heart
Those careless words
That tear you [G]apart
I barely heard
But I can't believe
[D]those careless words
you just said to [G]me[A][E]
[A][E][A][D][A][E][A][E][A][D]
[G]I was glad I was g[C]onna see
[D]my long -lost fri[G]end
Now I don't know if I
[C]wanna [D]ever see again
[G]I hope you didn't really mea[C]n them
[D]Cause they'd [G]be strong
And I could bleed right [C]between them
Some[D]times I wish you
would hold your tongue
But those [G]careless words
Will break your [D]heart
Those careless words
Will tear you [G]apart
I barely heard
But I can't believe
[D]those careless words
you just said to [G]me
Those [D]careless words
you just said to [G]me[D][G]
