Why Do I Cry

C7

        I would [C7#9]lose all my b[F]lues if you p[Gm]romise that your l[F]ove was
             [C7#9]true now [F]    [Gm]        [F]
        And[C7#9] I don't know w[F]hy I keep l[Gm]ovin' you the w[F]ay I[C7#9] do now[F]   [Gm]       [F]
        'Cause you l[Dm]eave me a[Am]lone
        To [Dm]cry on my [Am]own
        I s[Dm]wear you got a h[Am]eart that's m[F]ade of s[G]tone
        M[F]ade of s[G]tone

        And I don't know why I keep lovin' you the way I do
        But I do now
        I cry, you know why, I would die if you left me again
        The tears and the years would have all surely been in vain, now

        But you keep on leavin' me alone
        To cry on my own
        I swear you got a heart that's made of stone
        Made of stone
