         Don't Cry For Me Argentina 



Instrumental intro = verse 1 

   C                                                     F

1.    It won`t be easy, you`ll think it strange,

                                                G

    when I try to explain how I feel,

             G7                                   C

    that I still need your love after all that I`ve done.

                         Am                                             D

    You won`t believe me, all you will see is the girl you once knew,

          D7                                            G            D                                  G

    although she`s dressed up to the nines, at sixes and sevens with you.

 

    C                                                     F

1.     I had to let it happen, I had to change,

                                                         G

    couldn`t stay all my life down at heel,

                 G7                                      C

    looking out of the window, staying out of the sun.

                        Am                                             D

    So I chose freedom, running around, trying everything new,

           D7                                    G   - D                               G  

    but nothing impressed me at all,        I never expected it to.

 

  C

Don`t cry for me, Argentina, the truth is, I never left you,

                         G                             Am

all through my wild days, my mad existence,

                   G                                    F

I kept my promise, don`t keep your distance.

 

   C                                                 F                                       G

1.    And as for fortune and as for fame, I never invited them in,

                     G7                                            C

    though it seemed to the world they were all I desired.

                     Am                                                          D

    They are illusions, they`re not the solutions they promised to be,

           D7                                      G       D                                          G

    the answers were here all the time, I love you and hope you love me.

                         G                             Am

                   G                                    F

+      Have I said too much?

                                                                  G

    There's nothing more I can think of to say to you.

          Am                                                                              G         C

    But all you have to do is look at me to know that every word is true.
