[Intro]
C  Em  F  G   (2x)


[Verse 1]
    C                     Em
Oh, I can't stand another heart-ache
           F                     Dm7       G
Though you say you're my friend, I'm at my wits end
C                    Em                        F   Em
You say your love is bona fide, but that don't coincide
Dm                       F          Em             F          G
With the things that you do, when I ask you, to be nice - you say


[Chorus]
             F           G    Em           Am
You gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure
F           G            Em        Am
Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign
F           G     Em           Am
Cruel to be kind, means that I love you
G                                   C  Em  F  G
Ba-by, you gotta be cruel to be kind


[Verse 2]
     C                     Em
Well I do my best to understand you (it)
        F                  Dm7       G
But you still mystify, and I wanna know why
C                 Em
I pick myself up, off the ground
            F        Em         Dm         F
To have you knock me back down, again and again
       Em         F             G
When I ask you to explain - you say


[Chorus]
             F           G    Em           Am
You gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure
F           G            Em        Am
Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign
F           G     Em           Am
Cruel to be kind, means that I love you
G                                   C    Em
Ba-by, you gotta be cruel to be kind


[Instrumental]
F   G   Em   Am     x3
G   G   G


[Verse 3]
     C                     Em
Well I do my best to understand you (it)
        F                  Dm7       G
But you still mystify, and I wanna know why
C                 Em
I pick myself up, off the ground
            F        Em         Dm         F
To have you knock me back down, again and again
       Em         F             G
When I ask you to explain - you say


[Chorus]
             F           G    Em           Am
You gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure
F           G            Em        Am
Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign
F           G     Em           Am
Cruel to be kind, means that I love you
G                                                   
Ba-by, you gotta be ,you gotta be
