Crying Like a Man Chords & Lyrics by Joseph Arthur
Crying Like a Man
guitar chords lyrics
Em
You must destroy
All who you employ
Am
To protect your last invention
B
Work hard its destruction
Em
Ignore your good intention
You must ignore the wrong voice
Whose voice
Am
A peculiar choice
B
Well I'm sure
Em
You and I can't remember
Living like a backwards trainwreck
Am
trying to disguise the deceit
Intrinsic in our step
B
When love's got us by the neck
Em
Why can't we just surrender
Em
I'll be quiet
Am
I won't wake you up
B
I'll be quiet
Em
I won't wake you up
Don't whine
Drink wine
Like terpentine
Am
Cleaning out your inside in line
B
From your toes up through your spine
Em
Pretend you're a conductor
Maestro without music
God without man
Am
Me without you
Holding your hand
B
Falling like a leaf
Em
Crying like a man
[Chorus]
Em
We silently confess through open eyes
Am
Setting fire to the web spun right behind
B
In my mind's a spider
Em
And in your heart's a fly
When you're meek you are malicious
Am
Like a tame dog growing vicious
B
Somehow still suspicious
Em
Faithlessly religious
[Chorus]
