Grown Men Don't Cry

[ Capo 3 ]

Intro: G  D  Am7  C (x2)

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 runnin' 
    G      D  Am7  C
down her face
G                     D          
All mornin' I'd been thinkin' my 
          Am7
life's so hard
     C                        G   
And they wore everything they own,
  D             Am7  C
 livin' in a car
   G         D                
I wanted to tell him it would be 
Am7  C
okay
               G            D     
But I got just got in my suburban 
       Am7    C
and 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

      G                 D
Keep having this dream about my old 
man
    Am7                     C     
I'm 10 years old, and he's holding
    G    D  Am7  C
 my hand
      G                    D   
We're talkin' on the front porch 
                Am7
watchin' the sun go down
 C                 G           
But it was just a dream he was a 
   D                      Am7     
slave to his job and he couldn't 
      C
be around
G        D             Am7     C
So many things I wanna 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

     G                    D
I'm sittin' 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 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 weighin' on my mind 
Am7         C              G
disappears just like that
                    D               
   Am7        (no chord)
When she lifts her head off her 
pillow and says, "I love you Dad"

G  D  Am7  C  G

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
