you  sit there and call  me
 a liar and  a cheat
i  just wish you'd pin a rose  on me
now  you won't even
 come out  and take  a bow
cryin'  wont help  you now
 now your poets
 have all put down their pens
 the only songs to sing
 are those sung again
 lonely just doesn't
 look good on you somehow
cryin'  wont help  you now
i  just keep on staring
into  the black eyes of the truth
we'll  have to learn to live apart somehow
cryin'  wont help  you now  (x3)
cryin'  wont help  you noooo-ooooo-oow
 Ok. Think that`s it. I don`t know how to tab timing and stuff like that,
 so you should just listen to the song. The chords is correct though.
