[Ab] [Eb]
[Db] [Ab]
I'm not gonna cry today.
I [Eb] won't shed a tear
[Ab] [Db] Even if some milk is spilt I [Ab] won't dilute my beard.
I won't use a tissue [Eb] my pillow will stay dry
[Db] I won't need a shoulder cuz [Ab] I'm not gonna cry
I'm not gonna snivel and [Eb] I'm not gonna sob
[Ab] [Db] Both my eyes will remain dry and I [Ab] won't have to dog down.
Move me with a tragedy.
Just [Ebm] go ahead and try
[Ab] [Db] Play me a tearjerker, [Ab] but I'm not gonna cry
I'm [Eb]
[Ab]
not gonna weep [Eb] today.
I will not wet my cheek.
[Db] I'll count the ten and I'll hold it in I'm [Ab] not gonna leave
I'm not gonna lose [Eb] it though.
I may wanna die.
[Db] They say it's good to let it out, but I'm not gonna [Ab] cry
I'm not gonna blow up today.
[Eb] I'm not gonna ball
[Db] And I'm not gonna fall apart even if [Ab] you call I
Couldn't cry for 40 [Eb] years.
I was too tough a guy [Ab] now [Db] I can do it anytime
But I'm not [Ab] gonna cry.
[Ebm]
[Ab] [Db] [Ab]
I must have cried a million [Eb] tears at least 96
[Ab] [Db] I cried me a river and an ocean [Ab] just for kicks
Listen to the thunder [Eb] dark clouds fill the sky.
[Db] Well, it looks like rain and I hear a train, but I'm not [Ab] gonna cry
[Eb]
[Db] Yeah, well, it looks like rain and a hair train, but I'm not gonna [Ab] cry
