[A] would [Bm] say I'm sorry [C#m] and prompt thought that [D] it would change her [A] mind, but I know [Bm] that
this summer [C#m] has said too much, [D] been too [C#m] unkind.
[Bm] I've tried to laugh [C#m] about it, cover it [Bm] all up with lies.
[C#m] [Bm] I've tried to laugh [C#m] about it, hide images [Bm] in my eyes,
[A] cause boy, [Bm] don't [C#m] cry.
[D]
[A] [Bm] Boy, [A] don't [D] cry.

[F#m] Missed out your limit, [E] pushed [F#m] you too far, [E] to [F#m] take for granted.
[D] Stopped letting [E] it happen, my mama.
[A] Now I would do [F#m] most anything [C#m] to get you back [D] by my side.
[A] But I just [Bm] keep on laughing, [C#m] hiding [D] images in my eyes, [A] cause boy, [Bm] [C#m] don't [D] cry.
