F# I'm sorry, but I'm just a girl A#m Not usually the kind to show my heart to the world B I'm pretty good at keeping it together C# I hold my composure, for worse or for better So I apologize if you don't like what you see But sometimes my emotions get the best of me And falling apart is as human as it gets You can't hide it, you can't fight what the truth is Chorus: F# You can pretty lie and say it's okay A#m You can pretty smile and just walk away B Pretty much fake your way through anything C# F# But you can't cry pretty Oh no, you can’t dress it up in lace or rhinestones It don't matter if you're in a crowd or home all alone Yeah, it's all the same when you're looking in the mirror A picture of pain, so let it flow like a river Chorus You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks When all your mascara is going to waste When things get ugly, you just gotta face That you can't cry pretty Oh no, you can't Ooh, yeah Chorus: You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks When all your mascara is going to waste When things get ugly, you just gotta face That you can't cry pretty Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah No, you can't cry No, you can't cry Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, woo You can't cry You can't cry pretty, baby Oh yeah, woo, woo No, you can't cry pretty, yeah You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#m  B  C#  F#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
