[Intro]
E(With some Hammerons on the 2nd Fret A String)
[Verse]
I can't Estand to see
A good man go to Awaste
One who Enever combs his hair
Or shaves his B7face
EA man who leans on wine
Over love that's told a Alie
Oh, it Etears me up to B7see
A grown man Ecry
ESo I never go around Amirrors
I can't Estand to see me
Without you by my B7side
No, EI never go around Amirrors
EBecause I gotta B7heartache to Ehide
[Instrumental]
E----A----E----B7----E----A----E--B7--E  
[Verse]
EI can't stand to be
Where heartaches hang Aaround
It's so Eeasy for the blues to get me B7down
To Esee a grown man crawl
Is more than I can Astand
EAnd I look into B7the eyes of half a Eman
ESo I never go around Amirrors
I can't Estand to see me
Without you by my B7side
No, EI never go around Amirrors
EBecause I gotta B7heartache to Ehide
ELord it tears me up to B7see
A grown man Ecry
ELord it tears me up to B7see
A grown man Acry
(End with a walk down to  E3rd Fret, 2nd Fret, open E String)

[Intro]

(With some Hammerons on the 2nd Fret A String)

[Verse]

I can't stand to see

A good man go to waste

One who never combs his hair

Or shaves his face

A man who leans on wine

Over love that's told a lie

E B7

Oh, it tears me up to see

A grown man cry

E A

So I never go around mirrors

I can't stand to see me

Without you by my side

E A

No, I never go around mirrors

E B7 E

Because I gotta heartache to hide

[Instrumental]

E A E B7 E A E B7 E

----------------------------

[Verse]

I can't stand to be

Where heartaches hang around

E B7

It's so easy for the blues to get me down

To see a grown man crawl

Is more than I can stand

E B7 E

And I look into the eyes of half a man

E A

So I never go around mirrors

I can't stand to see me

Without you by my side

E A

No, I never go around mirrors

E B7 E

Because I gotta heartache to hide

E B7

Lord it tears me up to see

A grown man cry

E B7

Lord it tears me up to see

A grown man cry

(End with a walk down to 3rd Fret, 2nd Fret, open E String)
