G                  C
Life comes down so heavy

Am                  D             G         G
  Sometimes I can't bear it on my shoulders

        Am        Am     C                          G     G
I can't cry at all     my tears won't fall as I get older

          C                          D
Guess I'm goin' through the change I feel so cold and strange

     C             D               G       G
Wish I could fall apart and get it o - ver
[Chorus]
G               C    C
Why why can't I cry

     G      G         D       D
Like you do    when I need to

G               C    C         G
Why why can't I cry     when I need to

                D             G    G
And God knows I need to oh so bad

A woman can cry so easy

    Am                     D                G        G
You never have to hold the hurt down deep inside you

      Am                   C                G      G
But I can't let go I can't let it show like you do

          C                        D
Guess I'm goin' through a change I feel so cold and strange

     C                  D                 G      G
Wish I could just break down and cry like you do

Like you do    when I need to

G               C    C         G
Why why can't I cry     when I need to

                D             G    G
And God knows I need to oh so bad
