F#m  D                  A
You say that you're sorry
                        F#m
But I don't hear you talking
     D                A
You message you miss me
But you got me still wanting
       F#m        D               A
'Cause who wanna mess with a boy like you?
                                   F#m
Doin' them, doin' them things you do
    D               A
By loving, you lost it, yeah,
that's what it cost you

F#m                D        A
No, I don't wanna meet you out
A
Don't make it better with the whiskey
F#m              D         A
You can't just crush your heart
A
Turn around and wanna buy it a drink

Chorus:
A                             E
You wanna fix your heart and mend it
                        F#m
But there ain't enough stitches
                        D
Oh yeah, the damage is done (The damage is)
A                        E
Wanna unbreak it, wanna take it
                       C#m                    D
Try to make the pieces fit together back into one
Oh, the damage is done

Ain't no use in beggin'
Won't do you no good
So don't waste your breath
Sayin' you'd change everything if you could
'Cause this ain't somethin' you can repair
Little more than a scratch or a tear
It's deeper than deep, yeah

Chorus

C#m
Oh, I'm done with the damage
     D
I'm done with the, done with the damage

           A
Oh, it's knocked down in the dirt
F#m
You're a wrecking ball, I heard
 E                        D
Can't go back to what we were
Oh, the damage is

Chorus:
You wanna fix your heart and mend it
But there ain't enough stitches
Oh yeah, the damage is done (The damage is)
Wanna unbreak it, wanna take it
Try to make the pieces fit together back into one
But the damage is done

(Knocked down in the dirt)
(You're the wrecking ball, I heard)
Can't go back to what we were, oh
I'm done with the damage
Done with the, done with the damage
I'm done with the damage
