Verse 1

If there's a tear on my face  
It makes me shiver to the bone
It shakes me, babe 
It's just a heartache that got caught in my eye 
And you know
I never cry, 
C (strum for two bars)
I never cry

Verse 2

Sometimes I drink more than I need  
Until the TV's dead and gone  
I may be lonely, but I'm never alone
And the night, 
May pass me by
G7 F (two bars) C C7
But I'll never cry

Bridge

F (two bars)
Take away,
Take away my eyes
Sometimes I'd rather be blind 
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone

Chorus

'Cause that's all I got to give you  
Believe me babe, it ain't been used  
My heart's a virgin, it ain't never been tried
And you know
I never cry, 
And you know
I never cry, 
And you know, you know, you know, you know
I never cry 
F (two bars)
I never cry

Bridge

      
F (two bars) Em7 Am7
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone

Chorus

'Cause that's all I got to give you  
Believe me babe, it ain't been used  
My heart's a virgin, it ain't never been tried
And you know
I never cry, 
F (two bars) C
I never cry.
