F Ev'ry body knows where you go when the sun goes down. C7 I think you only live to see the lights uptown. F I wasted my time when I would try, try, try. A# C7 F 'Cause when the lights have lost their glow you'll cry, cry, cry. Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone You'll call for me but I'm gonna tell you: "Bye, bye, bye!" When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry Chorus: F You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone. A# F When ev'ryone's forgotten and you're left on your own C7 F you're gonna cry, cry, cry. I lie awake at night to wait 'til you come in You stay a little while and then you're gone again Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry When your fickle love gets old, no one will care for you Then you'll come back to me for a little love that's true I'll tell you no and then you'll ask me: "Why, why, why?" When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  C7  F  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
