Don`t cry for me, Argentina  (capo 3rd)

 

   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        

    although she`s dressed up to the nines,

         D                                  G  - G7

    at sixes and sevens with you.

 

    C                                                     F

2.        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 – G7

    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,

                 Em                                   F               

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

 

F

    Have I said too much? There is nothing more

                              Em

    I can think of to say to you.

F

    But all you have to do is look at me

                                    Em

    to know that every word is true.             + CHORUS  ~

 

Instr. : C - F - G - G7 - C          Am - D - D7 - G - D - G - G7

 

 

 

 

   C                                                  F                                      G

3.       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                                              

    the answers were here all the time,

       D                                          G  - G7

    I love you and hope you love me.

 

  C                                     

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

                         G                            Am

all through my wild days, my mad existence,

                 Em                                    F               

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

 

F

    Have I said too much? There is nothing more

                              Em

    I can think of to say to you.

F

    But all you have to do is look at me

                                    Em                                  + C

    to know that every word is true.   + CHORUS
