#1.
A        E             A
How many tears can you cry when you're sad 
    Gbm
and lonely?
    D
And how many tears can you cry when someone 
E
makes you blue?
G        D                            A
That's a question I'm still unable to answer..
      E                           A
cause I can't stop my cryin' over you.

A        E            A
How many lies can you count when you just 
      Gbm
can't sleep at night?
    D                                       E
And how many lies can you count before your heart 

is free?
D                                     A
That's a question I'm still unable to answer..
      E                                       A
cause I'm still countin' the lies you told to me.

BRIDGE:
A               D
There's just no end to all the broken promises 
     A                 E                 A
that I recall..I was a fool to fall, for you.
            D
It hurts to know you played a game and went and 
        A                Gbm        B
had yourself a ball..and through it all, you made 
   E
me blue.

    A                                        Gbm
How-ow many tears can you cry when it all is over?
    D                                        E
And how many tears can you cry when you want someone 

new?
D                                     A             E
That's a question I'm still unable to answer..cause I 
              D        A
can't stop my love for you.
