Intro: G D Am7 C (x2)

G         D
I pulled into the shopping center
  Am7        C          G      D Am7 C
And saw a little boy wrapped around the legs of his mother
   G         D
Like ice cream melting they embraced
Am7       C          G   D Am7 C
Years of bad decisions running down her face
G           D           Am7
All morning I'd been thinking my lifes's so hard
   C            G  D      Am7 C
And they wore everthing they own, living in a car
   G    D        Am7  C
I wanted to tell him it would be okay
       G     D      Am7  C
But I just got in my suburban and I drove away


Chorus:
G  D      Am7      C       G  D Am7 C G
And I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
D       Am7      C     G   D  Am7 C
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry

   G         D
Keep having this dream about my old man
  Am7           C    G  D Am7 C
I'm ten years old, and he's holding my hand
   G          D          Am7
We're talking on the front porch watching the sun go down
C          G       D          Am7      C
But it was just a dream he was a slave to his job and couldn't be around
G     D      Am7   C
So many things I wanna say to him
      G     D            Am7   C
But I just placed a rose on his grave, and I talked to the wind


Chorus:
G  D      Am7      C       G D Am7 C G
And I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
D       Am7     C     G     D    Am7 C
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry, don't cry


Instramental: Bb  F  Dm C Bb F D

   G          D
I'm sitting here with my kids and my wife
   Am7      C         G  D Am7 C
And everything that I hold dear in my life
 G           D
We say grace and we thank the lord
  Am7       C
Got so much to be thankful for
     G     D        Am7        C
Then it's up the stairs and off to bed and my little girl says
G   D     Am7   C
I haven't had my story yet
G      D       Am7     C      G
Everything weighing on my mind dissapears just like that
           D          Am7(Strummed once)
When she lifts her head off her pillow and says...I love you dad


D      Am7      C        G D Am7 C G
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
D      Am7      C     G  D  Am7 C
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
G  D      Am7      C        G D Am7 C G
And I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
D      Am7      C     G     D    Am7 C
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry, don't cry
