"Why Do I Cry"
(Barry Tashian)
Intro: C7#9 F Gm F [3X]
Verse 1:
I would [C7#9]lose all my b[F]lues if you p[Gm]romise that your l[F]ove was
[C7#9]true now[F][Gm][F]
And[C7#9] I don't know w[F]hy I keep l[Gm]ovin' you the w[F]ay I[C7#9] do now[F][Gm][F]
'Cause you l[Dm]eave me a[Am]lone
To [Dm]cry on my [Am]own
I s[Dm]wear you got a h[Am]eart that's m[F]ade of s[G]tone
M[F]ade of s[G]tone
Verse 2:
And I don't know why I keep lovin' you the way I do
But I do now
I cry, you know why, I would die if you left me again
The tears and the years would have all surely been in vain, now
But you keep on leavin' me alone
To cry on my own
I swear you got a heart that's made of stone
Made of stone
