I'm Not Crying by Flight Of The Conchords
I'm Not Crying
The notes written within parentheses are the bassnotes played.
1/17/08 - Fixed the chord timing in the beginning.
Spoken:
So, you’re leaving, aren’t you?
I knew it when you said just then when you told me you were leaving
That’s when I definitely knew
Cm Cm Cm/B
But if you’re trying to break my heart, your plan is flawed from the start
Ab Fm
You can’t break my heart, it’s liquid, it melted when I met you
Ab G Cm
And as you turn around to leave, don’t turn back to me
Cm/B Ab Fm
Don’t turn around and see if I’m crying, I’m not crying
C C/B Am
I’m not crying, it’s just been raining on my face
C C/B
And if you think you see some tear tracks down my cheeks, please,
Am
Please don’t tell my mates
C C/B Am
I’m not crying, no, I’m not crying
C C/B
And if I am crying, it’s not because of you
Am
It’s because I’m thinking about a friend of mine
Who you don’t know who is dying, that’s right, dying
Abm (B) (D)
These aren’t tears of sadness because you’re leaving me,
(F#)
I’ve just been cutting onions
C C/B Am
I’m making a lasagna, for one
Fm
Oh, I’m not crying, no!
C
There’s just a little bit of dust in my eye
C/B
That’s from the path that you made when you said your goodbye
Am
I’m not weeping because you won’t be here to hold my hand
For your information there’s an inflammation in my tear gland
C
I’m not upset because you left me this way
C/B
My eyes are just a little sweaty today
Am
They’ve been looking around, they’re like searching for you
They’ve been looking for you, even though I told them not to
Fm (Ab) (B)
These aren’t tears of sadness, they’re tears of joy
(D)
I’m just laughing
C C/B Am Fm
Ha ha ha-ha ha
Fm
Sitting at this table called love
Fm
Staring down at the irony of life
C C/B
How come we’ve reached this fork in the road
Am
And yet it cuts like a knife?
C C/B
I’m not crying
Am G
I’m not crying
F
I’m not cry-y-y-y-y
Fm C
y-y-y-y-ing

version 2
NOTE ON THE INTRO: I find it easiest to play it this way: start off with a Cm
barre chord at the 8th fret (emphasizing the lighter 4 strings) then, from that
position, drop your middle finger to the 7th fret to form the Cm/B chord, then
pick up your middle finger completely to form a C min 7th chord.
(Also, I play the C/B chord like this: Just like a first position Em, but with
your index finger on the 2nd string, first fret. I just leave the 6th and 1st
strings open.)
OK..here goes:
Cm Cm/B Cm7 G#-Fm
