Capo on 1st fret
[Intro]
D          G
D    A7    D
[Verse 1]
I can't Dstand to see a good man go Gto waste
One who Dnever combs his hair or shaves his A7face
A Dman that leans on wine over D7love that's told Ga lie
Oh, it Djust tears me up to A7see a grown man Dcry 
[Chorus]
And DI never go around Gmirrors
I can't Dstand to see me without you by my A7side
DI never go around Gmirrors
'cause DI've got a A7heartache to Dhide
[Interlude]
D7         G
D    A7    D
[Verse 2]
I can't Dstand to be where heartaches hang Garound
It's so Deasy for the blues to get me A7down
To Dsee a grown man crawl is D7more than I Gcan stand
I can't Dlook into these A7eyes of half Da man
[Chorus]
And DI never go around Gmirrors
I can't Dstand to see me without you by my sA7ide
No, DI never go around Gmirrors
'cause DI've got a A7heartache to Dhide 
And it teDars me up to A7see a grown man Dcry
