Verse 1:
I would say I’m sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I’ve said too much
Been too unkind
Pre-chorus 1:
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Chorus 1:
A Bm C#m D D C#m Bm A - Same as intro
´cause boys don’t cry
Boys don’t cry
Verse 2:
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that
It’s too late
And now there’s nothing I can do
Pre-chorus 2:
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Chorus 2:
´cause boys don’t cry
Boys don’t cry
Verse 3:
I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away
Bridge:
Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Verse 4:
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just
Keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
Chorus 3:
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
