Big Girls Don't Cry

[Intro] G/B  C9  D
        G/B  C9  D

[First Part]

G/B  C9       D
        The smell of your skin
 G/B    C9     D
Lingers    on me now
G/B  C9            D
        You're probably on your 
flight
      G/B     C9      D
Back to your hometown

G/B  C9      D
     I need some shelter of
   G/B     C9      D
My own protection baby
G/B  C9  D
        Be with myself in center
G/B  C9
        Clarity, peace, serenity

[Chorus]

C                  G              D
  I hope you know,   I hope you know

That this has nothing to do with you
C            G              D
  It's personal, myself and I
               Em                 C
We got some straightening out to do
               G
And I'm gonna miss you
                            D
Like a child misses their blanket
                      Em
But I've gotta get a move on with my
 life
C               G             D
  It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

[Pós-Refrão]

G/B  C9  D
           Don't cry
G/B         C9  D
    Don't cry, don't cry

[Second Part]

G/B  C9      D
        The path that I'm walking
G/B    C9       D
    I must go alone
G/B  C9               D
     I must take the baby steps
    G/B        C9  D
Til I'm full grown
G/B  C9        D
        Fairy tales don't always
 G/B    C9   D
Have a happy ending do they
G/B  C9     D                    
        And I forseek the dark 
G/B  C9
ahead  if I stay

[Chorus]

C                  G              D
  I hope you know,   I hope you know

That this has nothing to do with you
C            G              D
  It's personal, myself and I
               Em                 C
We got some straightening out to do
               G
And I'm gonna miss you
                            D
Like a child misses their blanket
                      Em
But I've gotta get a move on with my
 life
C               G             D
  It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry

G
  Like a little school
 D/F#                   C9
Mate in the school yard

We'll play jacks and uno cards

  I'll be your best friend
           C
And you'll   be my valentine

G              D/F#               
  Yes you can hold my hand if you 
 C
want to
                        G
Cuz I wanna hold yours too
           D/F#
We'll be playmates and lovers
      C
And share our secret worlds

D/F#           G                 C9
     But it's time for me to go home
              D/F#      G
It's getting late, dark outside
           C9
I need to be with myself in center

Clarity, peace, serenity

[Chorus]

C                  G              D
  I hope you know,   I hope you know

That this has nothing to do with you

  It's personal, myself and I
               Em                 C
We got some straightening out to do
               G
And I'm gonna miss you
                            D
Like a child misses their blanket
                      Em
But I've gotta get a move on with my
 life
C               G             D
  It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry
