This is the acoustic version of "Love Hurts" by Incubus. Basically the same progression
played throughout the song though I made up the Bm fingering since I don't know what it
is, but it sounds alright. I didn't include the solo (which is played by a 2nd electric
even in the acoustic version) since there are plenty of already perfectly tabbed
out there. For the refrain, just strum the standard appropriate chords. If you listen to
acoustic version, it's a no brainer. Hope this helps. Enjoy.

Verse 1:
----------
Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth
Don't wanna lose what I had as a boy
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat
As common as a cold day in L.A.
Refrain:
----------
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?
Chorus:
----------
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
‘Cause without love I won't survive
Instrumental: Em
Verse 2:
----------
I’m fettered and abused
Stand naked and accused
Should I surface, this one man submarine?
I only want the truth
So tonight we drink to youth
I’ll never lose what I had as a boy
Refrain:
----------
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing
Chorus:
----------
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
‘Cause without love I won't survive
Bridge:
Chorus:
----------
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
‘Cause without love I won't survive
Outro:
----------
Love hurts aaahhhhhhh ohhhhhh
Love hurts, ‘cause without love I won't survive
Love hurts ooohhhhhhh lalala ohhhh
Love hurts, ‘cause without love I won't survive
