NIXONS - "don t cry" Tablature

Official NIXONS Tablature & Sheet Music »

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 pretty 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 played in that song, but for those who don't here's the fingering:

C* - 0 3 2 0 3 0
G - 3 2 0 0 0 3
Em - 0 2 2 0 0 0
C - 0 3 2 0 1 0
D5 - 0 0 0 2 3 0


G Em C
If you ever turn, if you ever stop, and ask the question

G Em C
If you only knew the right question

G Em C
Take a look around, you're the only one still here

G Em C
And the lights went out hours ago

Pre-Chorus

D5 C*
It all started out, so innocent

D5 C
Is where we are so wrong?


Chorus

G D5 Em C*
Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G D5 C
Just try to learn to stay


Verse 2

G Em C
If you ever go to another place just know I'm trying

G Em C
To keep what I can together

G Em C
I'm seeing for a time, I can never fill the empty space that you

G Em C
Keep inside to be more alone


Pre-Chorus

D5 C*
It all started out so innocent

D5 C
Is where we are so wrong?


Chorus

G D5 Em C*
Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G Em C
Just try to learn to stay

Chorus x2


Bridge

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

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

D5 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 D5 Em C*
I wanted to see you just one last time before your flight

G D5 Em C*
I wanted to be your fuse on the fourth of July

G D5 Em C*
I wanted to see you just one last time before you go

G D5 Em 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.
