Grown Men Dont Cry

Intro: G  D  Am7  C (x2)

Verse 1

G                  D
I pulled into the shopping center
    Am7               C           
And saw a little boy wrapped 
        G           D  Am7  C
around the legs of his mother
      G                 D
Like ice cream melting they embraced
Am7              C               
Years of bad decisions running 
    G     D  Am7  C
down her face
G                      D         
All morning I'd been thinking my 
            Am7
life’s so hard
      C                       G    
And they wore everything they own, 
D            Am7  C
living in a car
     G        D               Am7
I wanted to tell him it would be 
   C
okay
              G          D        
But I just got in my suburban and 
   Am7    C
I drove away


CHORUS

G    D            Am7           
And I don't know why they say 
C              G   D  Am7  C  G
grown men don't cry
D             Am7           C   
I don't know why they say grown 
      G     D   Am7  C
men don't cry

Verse 2

    G                  D
Keep having this dream about my old 
man
    Am7                      C    
I'm ten years old, and he's 
    G    D  Am7  C
holding my hand
      G                   D    
We're talking on the front porch 
                Am7
watching the sun go down
C                   G         
But it was just a dream he was a 
     D                   Am7   
slave to his job and couldn't be 
        C
around
G         D            Am7     C
So many things I want to say to him
           G         D        
But I just placed a rose on his 
                Am7      C
grave, and I talked to the wind

CHORUS

G    D            Am7           
And I don't know why they say 
C              G  D  Am7  C  G
grown men don't cry
D             Am7          C    
I don't know why they say grown 
      G         D        Am7  C
men don't cry, don't cry

Verse 3

      G                   D
I'm sitting here with my kids and my
 wife
      Am7           C             
And everything that I hold dear in
    G   D  Am7  C
 my life
 G                     D
We say grace and we thank the lord
    Am7              C
Got so much to be thankful for
         G         D               
Then it's up the stairs and off to 
Am7                C
bed and my little girl says
G     D          Am7      C
I haven't had my story yet
G            D             
Everything weighing on my mind 
Am7          C            G
disappears just like that
                     D              
     Am7(Strummed once)
When she lifts her head off her 
pillow and says...I love you dad

CHORUS

D            Am7           C    
I don't know why they say grown 
           G  D  Am7  C  G
men don't cry
D            Am7           C    
I don't know why they say grown 
      G    D   Am7  C
men don't cry
G   D            Am7           
And I don't know why they say 
C               G  D  Am7  C  G
grown men don't cry
D            Am7           C    
I don't know why they say grown 
      G         D        Am7  C
men don't cry, don't cry
