[Primeira Parte]

A                Bm
I would say I'm sorry if
    C#m                   D
I thought that it would change your mind
 A                Bm
But I know that this time
        C#m                 D
I have said too much, been to unkind

[Pré-Refrão]

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

[Refrão]

      A  Bm         C#m  D
Cos' boys   don't cry

( D5  C#5  B5 )

 A    Bm     C#m  D
Boys don't cry

( D5  C#5  B5 )

[Segunda Parte]

A                  Bm
I would break down at your feet
     C#m               D
And beg forgiveness, plead with you
 A              Bm
But I know that it's too late
     C#m                 D
And now there's nothing left that I can do

[Pré-Refrão]

C#m            Bm
  So I try to laugh about it
 C#m                  Bm
Cover it all up with lies
C#m         Bm
  I try to laugh about it
 C#m                 Bm
Hiding the tears in my eyes

[Refrão]

      A  Bm         C#m  D
Cos' boys   don't cry

( D5  C#5  B5 )

 A    Bm     C#m  D

[Terceira Parte]

A                  Bm             C#m
I would tell you that I loved you if
                D
I thought that you would stay
 A              Bm
But I know that it's no use that
 C#m            D
You've already gone away

[Ponte]

E                 F#m
  Misjudged your limit
E                 F#m
  Pushed you too far
E                F#m
  Took you for granted
    Bm                        E
I thought that you needed me more

 A                  Bm
Now I would do most anything
    C#m                D
To get you back by my side
 A          Bm
But I just keep on laughing
 C#m                   D
Hiding the tears in my eyes

[Refrão]

      A           Bm  C#m  D
Cos' boys don't cry
