[Fm] [Ab] [Fm] [Bb] [Bbm]
[Ab] [C]
[Fm] Did you ever want to [Bbm] cry, [Fm] but [Ab] you didn't know just [C] why?
[F] Did you ever sit [Bb] up all night [Eb] long, just listening [Ab] to that same [Db] old song?
[Bb] The one they played [Eb] when she said [Cm] nothing [G] could go [Fm] wrong, right?
I know [Bbm] you did.
[Ab]
Oh, you [C] kid.
[F] Did you really think [Bb] that she'd be [Eb] true?
Wasn't [Ab] that rather [Db] naive of you?
[Bb] And now she's dropped [Eb] you like a worn-out [Fm] shoe.
She's got you [Bbm] drinking gin, [Ab] and you know [C] that's a sin.
[F] You go honky [Bb]-tonking every [Eb] night.
You get [Ab] drunk and then [Ebm] you [Ab] start [Abm] a [Db] fight.
[Bb] I know that you [Eb] think [Db] that it's [Fm] all right.
Wrong, it's not [Bbm] the way to live.
[Ab] You only get [C] what you give.
[F] You can live your life [Bb] just as you [Eb] please.
But when you lie [Ab] with [Ebm] those, you gotta [Db] get feelings.
[Bb] And now she's brought [Eb] you down to your [Fm] knees.
You take these [Bbm] to hold you tight.
[Ab] You miss them in the [C] night.
[F] You burn the [Bbm] candle at [Bb] all [Eb] times.
Now it's [Ab] too late, [Ebm] too [Db] late to [Gb] make [Bb] amends.
You've even [Eb] lost your old time [Fm] friend.
Enemies glad to [Bbm] see you down.
[Ab] People, they don't want you [C] hanging around.
[Fm] Didn't you ever want [Bbm] to cry?
[Fm] But you didn't know just [Bbm] why.
[Fm] Right, I know [Bbm] you did.
[Bb] [Fm] Wrong, it's not the [Bbm] way to live.
[F] Didn't you ever [E] want [Bbm] to cry?
