Did You Ever Want to Cry Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][A][Em][G][B]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Did you
ever want to [Am]cry,
[G]But you didn't know just [B]why?
[E]Did you ever sit [A]up all night long
[D]Just listening to [G]that same old son[C]g
[A]The one they played when she[D] said
Nothin' [Bm]could go [Em]wrong?
Right, I know you [Am]did, [G]oh, you kid[B]
[E]Did you really think that
[A]she'd be tru[D]e?
Wasn't that [G]rather naive of [C]you?
[A]And now she'd dropped you like
[D]a worn- out [Bm]shoe.[B][Em]

[Verse 2]
She's got you drinking [Am]gin[G]
And you [B]know that's a sin
[E]You go [A]honky-
tonkin' every [D]night
You get drunk and [G]then
you start [C]a fight
[Am]I know that you [A]think that
[D]it's [A]al [Bm]right[Em]
Wrong, it's not the way [Am]to live
[G]You only get what you giv[B]e!
[E]You can live your life [A]just as you please
[D]But, when you lie with dog[G]s,
you gotta get [C]fleas[Am]
[A]And now she's brought you
[D]down to your [Bm]knees[Em]
Arms that used to hold [Am]you tight
You [G]miss them in the middle of [B]night
[E]You burned a candle at bot[A]h end[D]s
Now it's [G]too late...too late
to [C]make amends
[A]You've even lost your
[D]old [C]time [B]friends.

[Verse 3]
[Em]Enemies glad to see you [Am]down
[G]People, they don't want you
hangin' [B]'round[Em]
Did you ever want [Am]to cry,
[Em]But you didn't know just w[Am]hy?
[Em]Right, I know you did[Am]
[Em]Wrong, it's not the way to [Am]live
[Em]Did you ever want to cry...
