       G#m            F#     E      G#m F# E
So you lie awake and think about tomorrow
And you try to justify the things you've done
But there's no one here, to hear your tears falling
When you turn around, you find out, that you're the lonely one

        C#m                  F#      E       G#m   F# E
And it feels like someone's treading on your shadow
        C#m                  F#     E        G#m   F# E
And you always thought that Heaven knows for sure
        C#m                B   F#/A#         E
And it feels like you're drowning , in your tears

Chorus:
 F# G#m E   F#     G#m
So I won't cry for you,
no I ain't gonna cry for you
And I ain't gonna lie for you,
no I ain't gonna cry for you
Ain't gonna cry for you

So you lie awake and think about the sorrow
Does it really still the fears in your mind
And you try to realise the things you wanted
But you take it all for granted and now it makes you blind

And it feels like someone's treading on your shadow
And you always thought that Heaven knows for sure
And it feels like you're drowning, in your tears

Chorus:
So I ain't gonna cry for you,
no I ain't gonna die for you
And I ain't gonna lie for you,
no I ain't gonna cry for you
Ain't gonna cry
I ain't gonna cry for you,
I ain't gonna cry

So I ain't gonna cry for you,
no I ain't gonna die for you
No I ain't gonna lie for you,
no I ain't gonna cry for you
Ain't gonna cry,
ain't gonna cry for you no more
Ain't gonna die,
I ain't gonna die for no more
Ain't gonna lie,
I ain't gonna lie for no more
Ain't gonna cry,
I ain't gonna cry for you no more
