    VERSE 2:
     
  • (after verse 1 both rhythm guitars kick in with a little slide on the low e-string - this ultra-cool thing that guitarists just do - listen to it with headphones and you'll hear what I mean)

  • E-|----------------------------------------------------|
    I took you for granted...
     
  • VERSE 4:
    like Verse 2 (so it's just the main riff without the lead)
     
  • Now I would do most anything...
     
    CHORUS:
  • It's pretty the same as the previous chorus, but the lead varies a little (it's nothing new). If you listen to the record there won't be any problems I think.
     
    C'est ca.

    LYRICS:
     
  • Verse 1:
    I would say I'm sorry
    If I thought that it would change your mind
  • But I know that this time
    I've said too much / Been too unkind
     
  • Verse 2:
    I would break down at your feet
    And beg forgiveness / Plead with you
  • But I know that it's too late
    And now there's nothing I can do
     
  • Interlude:
    I try to laugh about it
    Cover it all up with lies
  • I try to Laugh about it
    Hiding the tears in my eyes ('cause)
     
  • Chorus:
    Boys don't cry
    Boys don't cry
  •  
    Verse 3:
    I would tell you that I loved you
  • If I thought that you would stay
    But I know that it's no use
    That you've already gone away
  •  
    Bridge:
    Misjudged your limits
  • Pushed you too far
    Took you for granted
    I thought that you needed me more
  •  
    Verse 4:
    Now I would do most anything
  • To get you back by my side
    But I just keep on laughing
    Hiding the tears in my eyes ('cause)
  •  
    Chorus:
    Boys don't cry
  • Boys don't cry
  • PLAY TOO ..
