Intro: A  C#m  D  E  A 

Verse 1: 


A                    C#m         D 
She's got a new look on her face 
            A              E    C#m A 
I only wish it mean't good news 
                        C#m 
But something's missing from her embrace 
D               A              Bm            E 
And my heart is aching and I'm shaking in my shoes 


Chorus: 
          D     
She don't cry like she used to 
       F#m 
She no longer walks the floor 
          E 
She don't ask me where I'm going 
         D             A 
When I'm going out the door 
          D              E 
She don't worry, wait or wonder 
           A      E    F#m 
Like she's always done before 
          D            E       Bm 
She don't cry like she used to anymore 
          D            E       A 
She don't cry like she used to anymore 


A  C#m  D  E  A 

Verse 2: 


A                         C#m 
If only she would hold me in her arms tonight 
D                   A                    E      C#m  A 
And tell me how her heart aches when I'm gone 
                           C#m                
Even if she'd scold me for staying out all night 
   D                     A              Bm              E 
At least, I'd know that she still cares enough to carry on 


Chorus: 
          D       
She don't cry like she used to 
       F#m 
She no longer walks the floor 
          E 
She don't ask me where I'm going 
         D             A 
When I'm going out the door 
          D              E 
She don't worry, wait or wonder 
           A      E    F#m 
Like she's always done before 
          D            E       Bm 
She don't cry like she used to anymore 
          D            E       A 
She don't cry like she used to anymore 


Tag: 
    D                 E  
Now I'm the one who's breaking down 
    A       E         F#m 
The one who walks the floor 
          D            E       Bm 
She don't cry like she used to anymore 
          D            E       A 
She don't cry like she used to anymore
