...TEARS DRY ON THEIR OWN... by Amy Winehouse
----------------------------.................
*from 'Back to Black (2006)*
[Verse 1]
C#m/B C#m/Bb
All I can ever be to you, is a darkness that we knew,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
And this regret I got ac-customed to.
C#m/B C#m/Bb
Once it was so right, when we were at our high,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
Waiting for you in the ho-tel at night.
[Verse 2]
C#m/B C#m/Bb
I knew I hadn't met my match, but every moment we could snatch.
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
I don't know why I got so attached.
C#m/B C#m/Bb
It's my responsibility, and you don't owe nothing to me,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G#
But to walk away; I have no ca-pacity.
[Chorus 1]
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
A F#m G#m C#m
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G# A9
()
My tears dry on their own.
[Verse 3]
C#m/B C#m/Bb
I don't understand; why do I stress a man,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
When there's so many better things at hand?
C#m/B C#m/Bb
We could a never had it all; we had to hit a wall,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
So this is in-evita-ble withdrawal.
[Verse 4]
C#m/B C#m/Bb
Even if I stop wanting you, a per-spective pushes through,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
I'll be some next man's other woman soon.
E6 A#m7b5
I can't play myself again, I should just be my own best friend,
C#m/B C#m/Bb
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men.
[Chorus 2]
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G# A9
()
My tears dry on their own.
[Bridge 1]
A9/B
So we are history; your shadow covers me, the sky above, a blaze...
[Chorus 3]
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G# A9
()
My tears dry on their own.
[Verse 5]
C#m/B C#m/Bb
I wish I could say no regrets, and no e-motional debts,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G# A A/Bb
'Cos as we kiss good-bye the sun sets.
C#m/B C#m/Bb
So we are history; the shadow covers me,
C#m/A C#m/G# A/F# A/G#
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see.
[Chorus 4]
A F#m G#m C#m
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
A F#m G#m C#m
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
A F#m G#m C#m
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G#m A
My tears dry on their own.
[Chorus 5]
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
C#m/A G#m7 C#m7
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G# A9
()
My tears dry on their own.
[Chorus 6]
A F#m G#m C#m
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
A F#m G#m C#m
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
A F#m G#m C#m
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
F#7 G#m A
My tears dry on their own.
