I Cried

(início)

INTRO:
A Asus4 A    E Esus4 E
VERSE:
            A Asus4 A
He was tough,
            A
Said he'd lived a good long life
          D         Dadd9 D
And he'd seen a lot,
 D
Watched 82 years fly by
           A           Asus4 A
And three kids grow up,
          E
Seen 'em all have kids
                        A Asus4 A   E Esus4 E
And grandkids of their own.
VERSE:
            A Asus4 A
He was brave.
         A
He was scared to die,
                          D          Dadd9 D
Well, you couldn't see it on his face.
 D                                     A           Asus4 A
Like a soldier he marched through his numbered days.
 E
Made his peace with God
                 A Asus4 A   E Esus4 E   F#m G#m
And then he was gone.
CHORUS:
    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm       E                Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E               A  Asus4 A  E Esus4 E   F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.
    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm        E                 Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E                   A      Asus4 A  E
So that was all I could do.
VERSE:
              A Asus4 A
She was strong.
 A                                D        Dadd9 D
Held his hand when he was barely holding on.
                D                          A        Asus4 A
She told him, "Don't worry about me, I'll get along.
 E
You go on to Heaven.
            A     Asus4 A   E Esus4 E
Go on, and rest."
 E          A   Asus4 A
Now she's alone.
 A                      D               Dadd9 D
Livin' the life that's too much for one.
 D                      A       Asus4 A
Just last night on the telephone,
E                               A  Asus4 A  E Esus4 E   F#m G#m
I could hear the lonely in her line.
CHORUS:
    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm       E                Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E               A  Asus4 A  E Esus4 E   F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.
    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm        E                 Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E                  F#m
So that was all I could

    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm       E                Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E               A  Asus4 A  E Esus4 E   F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.
    A   A7
I cried.
       D    Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm        E                 Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E                   A      Asus4 A
So that was all I could do.
A               E                Esus4 E
Oh, there was nothing I could do,
       A  Asus4 A  E
So I cried.
