Cry Me A River chords by John Martyn
Guitar chords with lyrics
Chord Sequences:
[Note: Experiment with minor 11 (no 5th) chords rather than simple minor or minor 7ths
in the below sequence.
Take the minor 7 flat 6th with pinch of salt..but it would be easy to do in dadgad
(which I tried as well as the proper tuning).
Also could try (rather than m7b6 chord in sequence 2), an Esus9 chord..I am not too
sure of all the subtle tonalities here
but its essentially Em for a few bars. ]
Sequence 1:
Now you say you love me
Cm
But you cry the whole night through
Fm Gm
You can cry me a river
............Cm........Fm Gm
Oh yes you're going' to cry me a river
Cm Fm Gm
Cos I cried a river over you.
Gm Cm
🎸
