Intro G Am Bm C, C-Bm-Am-G

Verse:
G                     Am               Bm                       C                    :||I would say I'm sorry if I thought that it would change your mind                  
But I know that this time I have said too much, been too unkind
 
Pre Chorus:
Bm         Am          :||I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes

Chorus:
G       Am     Bm     C      C-Bm-Am-G 'Cause boys don't cry
G       Am     Bm     C      C-Bm-Am-G Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet and beg forgiveness plead with you
But I know that its no use 'cause now there's nothing I can do

I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

I would tell you that I love you if I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use 'cause you've already gone away

Bridge:
D               Em     :||Misjudged your limits
I pushed you too far
I took you for granted
   C                    DI thought that you needed me more

I would do most anything to get you back by my side
But I'll just keep on laughing, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry :||

Outro: G Am Bm C, C-Bm-Am-G------ (hold/fade G chord)
