[A] [Bm]
[A] [D] [C#m]
[A] I would say [Bm] I'm sorry if [C#m] I thought that it would [D] change your [A] mind
But I know that [Bm] this time I have [C#m] said too much, [D] been too [C#m] unkind
I try [B] to laugh about [C#m] it, cover it [C] all [Bm] up with lies
[C#m] I try [Bm] and laugh about [C#m] it, hiding the tears [B] in my eyes
[A] Boys, [Bm] [A]
don't cry, [D] [C#m]
[A] [Bm] boys, [C#m] don't cry
[D] [C#m]
[A] I'll break [B] down at your feet [C#m] and beg forgiveness, [D] plead with [A] you
But I know [Bm] that it's too late, [C#m] and now there's nothing [D] I can [C#m] do
So I try [Bm] to laugh about [C#m] it, cover it all [Bm] up with lies
[C#m] I try [Bm] to laugh about [C#m] it, hiding the tears [Bm] in my eyes
[A] Because boys, [Bm] [A]
don't cry, [D] [A]
boys, [F#m] [Bm] [A]
don't cry
[D] I [C#m]
[A] would tell [Bm] you that I loved [C#m] you if I thought [D] that you would [A] stay
But I know [B] that it's no use, [C#m] that you've already [D] gone away
[E] [F#m] Misjudged your limit,
[E] pushed [F#m] you too far,
[E] took you [F#m] for granted
[D] I thought that you needed [E] me more, more, more
[A] Now I would do [Bm] most anything [C#m] to get you back [D] by my side
[A] But I just [B] keep on laughing, [C#m] hiding the tears [D] in my eyes
[A] Because boys, [Bm] [E] don't [C#m] cry, [D]
[A] boys, [F#m] [Bm]
