The Nixons - Don't Cry


This is a fairly simple song.  I'm not sure of the words exactly, since they aren't printed in the insert. 
This song is played tuned down 1/2 step.  I just listened to the song to get the tuning right, but I am 
sure that it is 1/2 a step down.
The C with a * beside it is a different fingering.  If you know how to play Sister then it's the same C 
in that song, but for those who don't here's the fingering:

C* -  0 3 2 0 3 0
G (320003@1) -  3 2 0 0 0 3
Em- (022000@1)0 2 2 0 0 0
C (x32010@1) -  0 3 2 0 1 0
D5- (xx023x@1) 0 0 0 2 3 0


G (320003@1)               Em (022000@1)CIf (x32010@1)you ever turn, if you ever stop, and ask the question

G (320003@1)                Em (022000@1)CIf (x32010@1)you only knew the right question

G (320003@1)               Em (022000@1)                        CTake (x32010@1)a look around, you're the only one still here

G (320003@1)                             Em (022000@1)          CAnd (x32010@1)the lights went out hours ago

Pre-Chorus

D5 (xx023x@1)                           C*
It all started out, so innocent

D5 (xx023x@1)                            CIs (x32010@1)where we are so wrong?


Chorus

G (320003@1)                D5 (xx023x@1)                  Em (022000@1)                              C*
Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G (320003@1)             D5 (xx023x@1)       CJust (x32010@1)try to learn to stay


Verse 2

G (320003@1)              Em (022000@1)                CIf (x32010@1)you ever go to another place just know I'm trying

G (320003@1)            Em (022000@1)               CTo (x32010@1)keep what I can together

G (320003@1)                      Em (022000@1)                     CI'm (x32010@1)seeing for a time, I can never fill the empty space that you

G (320003@1)      Em (022000@1)                     CKeep (x32010@1)inside to be more alone


Pre-Chorus

D5 (xx023x@1)                            C*
It all started out so innocent

D5 (xx023x@1)                           CIs (x32010@1)where we are so wrong?


Chorus

G (320003@1)              D5 (xx023x@1)                   Em (022000@1)                        C*
Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G (320003@1)             Em (022000@1)      CJust (x32010@1)try to learn to stay

Chorus x2


Bridge

D5 (xx023x@1)                               C*
I know the clouds are coming  (but it's not enough to tell)

D5 (xx023x@1)                                C*
The way the sunlight's burning (it brings another day)

D5 (xx023x@1)                            C*
Don't go (don't go) no matter what I say


Guitar Solo

Just play G Em C

Pre-Chorus


Chorus x2

Then there's kind of an ending verse

G (320003@1)          D5 (xx023x@1)            Em (022000@1)                      C*
I wanted to see you just one last time before your flight

G (320003@1)           D5 (xx023x@1)           Em (022000@1)            C*
I wanted to be your fuse on the fourth of July

G (320003@1)          D5 (xx023x@1)           Em (022000@1)             C*
I wanted to see you just one last time before you go

G (320003@1)         D5 (xx023x@1)        Em (022000@1)         C*
I wanted to only, let you know

Then play G Em C a few times repeating the words "let you know" every once in a while, and then end on G.
