x4

A               Bm
 I would say I'm sorry 
        C#m                   D   
 If 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 too unkind 

Refrain :

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

Chorus I :

         A    Bm   C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm
 'Cause boys don't cry  
  A    Bm   C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm
  Boys don't cry 

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 I can do 

Refrain :

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

Chorus I :

         A    Bm   C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm    
 'Cause boys don't cry  
  A    Bm   C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm   
  Boys don't cry 

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

Bridge :

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

Chorus II :

          A  Bm      C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm    
 'Cause boys   don't cry  
 A    Bm   C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm   
 Boys don't cry 
 A Bm           C#m  D      D   C#m   Bm   
      Boys don't cry
