Boys Don't Cry - The Cure

I would say I'm sorry if I thought   [Verse]

That it would change your mind        C#   D#m

But I know that this time             Fm F#

I have said too much, been too unkind

                                      [Link]

(() I try to laugh about it           Fm D#m

 (Cover it all up with lies/          Fm D#m

  Hiding the tears in my eyes) x2)

                                      [Hook]

'Cause (boys don't cry - … x2)    C#  D#m  Fm

                                  F#-F#>Fm>D#m

I would break down at your feet

And beg forgiveness, plead with you

But I know that it's too late           (So)

And now there's nothing I can do      [Link]

                                      [Hook]

I would tell you that I loved you

If I thought that you would stay

But I know that it's no use         [Intro

And you're already gone away           Hook]

                                        (x4)

[Bridge] (G# Bbm7 x3)  - F# G#

Misjudged your limits - Pushed you too far

Took you for granted

I thought that you needed me (more x3)


Now, I would do 'most anything

To get you back by my side

But I just keep on laughing    [Hook] (x3)

Hiding the tears in my eyes    [Intro - Rit]
