[Intro]
G C6 G C6
G C6 G C6 G C6 G C6
I've got every reason on earth to be mad,
G C6 G C6 D7
cause I've just lost the only girl I had
C7
If I could get my way, I'd get myself locked up today,
G C6 D7 G C6 G C6
but I can't, so I'll cry instead.
G C6 G C6 G C6 G C6
I got a chip on my shoulder that's bigger than my feet,
G C6 G C6 D7
I can't talk to people that I meet
C7
If I could see you now, I'd try to make
G C6 D7 G C6 G
you sad somehow, but I can't, so I'll cry instead.
C6 Bm
Don't wanna cry when there's people there,
A7
I get shy when they start to stare;
D Em A7 D7
I'm gonna hide myself away, but I'll come back again some day
G C6 G C6 G C6 G C6
And when I do you better hide all the girls,
G C6 G C6 D7
I'm gonna break their hearts all round the world
C7
Yes I'm gonna break 'em in two,
and show you what your loving man can do;
G C6 D7 G C6 G C6
until then I'll cry instead.
Bm
Don't wanna cry when there's people there,
A7
I get shy when they start to stare;
D Em A7 D7
I'm gonna hide myself away, but I'll come back again some day
G C6 G C6 G C6 G C6
And when I do you better hide all the girls,
G C6 G C6 D7
I'm gonna break their hearts all round the world
C7
Yes I'm gonna break 'em in two,
and show you what your loving man can do;
G C6 D7 G C6 G
until then I'll cry instead.
