Intro: G D Am7 C (x2)
[G]I pulled into the s[D]hopping center
And[Am7] saw a little boy [C]wrapped around the l[G]egs of his moth[D]er[Am7] [C]
Like [G]ice cream melting [D]they embraced
[Am7]Years of bad dec[C]isions runnin' down h[G]er face[D] [Am7] [C]
[G]All mornin' I'd been t[D]hinkin' my life's so [Am7]hard
And [C]they wore everything they[G] own, [D]livin' in a ca[Am7]r[C]
I [G]wanted to [D]tell him it would[Am7] be o[C]kay
But I got just[G] got in my su[D]burban and I [Am7]drove a[C]way
Chorus:
[G]And [D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men don't c[G]ry[D] [Am7] [C] [G]
[D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men do[G]n't cry[D] [Am7] [C]
Keep [G]having this dream [D]about my old man
I'm[Am7] 10 years old, and he's [C]holding my[G] hand[D] [Am7] [C]
We're[G] talkin' on the front[D] porch watchin' the [Am7]sun go down
[C]But it was just a [G]dream he was a [D]slave to his job and he[Am7] couldn't be a[C]round
[G]So many t[D]hings I wanna [Am7]say to h[C]im
But I just [G]placed a [D]rose on his grave, and I [Am7]talked[C] to the wind
Chorus:
[G]And [D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men don't c[G]ry[D] [Am7] [C] [G]
[D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men do[G]n't cry, d[D]on't cry[Am7] [C]
Instrumental: Bb F Dm C Bb F D
I'm [G]sittin' here with my [D]kids and my wife
And[Am7] everything that[C] I hold dear in my[G] lif[D]e[Am7] [C]
[G]We say grace and t[D]hank the Lord
Got[Am7] so much to be [C]thankful for
Then it's[G] up the st[D]airs and off to[Am7] bed and my little [C]girl says
[G]"I h[D]aven't had my [Am7]story y[C]et."
[G]Everything w[D]eighin' on my[Am7] mind disapp[C]ears just like [G]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]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men don't c[G]ry[D] [Am7] [C] [G]
[D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men do[G]n't cry[D] [Am7] [C]
[G]And [D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men don't c[G]ry[D] [Am7] [C] [G]
[D]I don't know [Am7]why they say g[C]rown men do[G]n't cry, d[D]on't cry[Am7] [C]
