[Intro]
C/G F G C/G
[Verse]
C/G F
Sometimes happy ever after ain’t always ever after
G C/G
You promised me forever then you ran off with a dancer
C/G
Now it’s good to see you back here
F
But I’m on to greener pastures
G C/G
And if you gotta cry, cry softly
[Chorus]
F C/G
Cry softly, real quietly
G C/G
Your tears are unsightly
F C/G
There’s the front door, thanks awfully
G C/G
If you gotta cry, cry softly
[Verse]
C/G
This ain’t the first time that you left me
F
Remember Reno, Taos and Tempe
G C/G
Remember Carlsbad, El Paso and that second time in Tempe
C/G
Yeah you’ve pulled a lot of fast ones
F
But this last one is your last one
G C/G
And if you’ve gotta cry, cry softly
[Chorus]
F C/G
Cry softly, real quietly
G C/G
Your tears are unsightly
F C/G
There’s the front door, thanks awfully
G C/G
If you gotta cry, cry softly
[Break]
F C/G G C/G F C/G G C/G
[Verse]
C/G
Well heaven needs a hell
F
Liberty a bell
G
Up 'til now I thought that feeling bad
C/G
Meant things were going well
C/G
Now things are going great
F
But honey babe it's late
G C/G
So if you gotta cry, cry softly
[Verse]
C/G
I admit since you’ve been gone
F
I’ve done my share of moving on
G
There’s been a lot of warm embracing
C/G
Whiskey chasing vodka blondes
C/G
Oh honey babe I'm beat
F
And I need a little sleep
G C/G
And if you gotta cry, cry softly
[Chorus]
F C/G
Cry softly, real quietly
G C/G
Your tears are unsightly
F C/G
There’s the front door, thanks awfully
G
And if you gotta cry, cry
G
If you gotta cry, cry
G C/G
If you gotta cry, cry softly
[Outro]
