| | This is another early Henley ballad, a great song which |
| is really easy to play. Once I got the opening I got the |
| rest of the song on the first run-through. I will put |
| up the acoustic part and lyrics first, then I'll attempt |
| the electric part below. Have fun! |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------INTRO (piano on 1st line, guitar enters on 2nd)
| All single-note runs are (g a c): |
| | C | D | Fm | C | C | D | Fm | C | G | C |
| | | | | | | | | | You never cry like a | lover should |
| | G | C |
| | Sigh-ay-ay when it | feels real good |
| | G | C |
| | Or see the sky through the | stone and wood |
| | G |
| | You never cry like a lover |
| | C | D |
| | I thought I saw some | body I loved |
| | Fm | C |
| | Sleepin' deep in | side you |
| | C | D |
| | If I could catch you at an | unguarded moment |
| | Fm | C |
| | I'd stay right there be | side you |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Verse and Chorus simile to above
| You never smile at me late at night |
| Laugh out loud when we get it right |
| You can't get loose if there's too much light |
| You never smile like a lover |
| (Try a little harder) I can't live with you baby |
| (Harder) Can't live without it. |
| (Try a little harder) And sometimes I believe in love |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bridge:
| | Am | G | F |
| But your | life | goes | on |
| | Am |
| Like a broken-down | carousel |
| | G | F |
| | Where somebody | left the music on |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Guitar Solo:
| | Am | Am/G | F | F/G | Am | Am/G | F | F/G | Am | Am/G |
| | | | | | | | | | I was hopin' you were the one | |
| | F | F/G |
| | I was hopin' you were the one | |
| | Am | Am/G |
| | I was hopin' you were the one | |
| | F | F#dim |
| | I was hopin' you were the one | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------This just repeats G C
| You never move like you used to do |
| Pour it out when you're feelin' blue |
| Somebody must have put some pain on you |
| You never cry like a lover |
| You never cry like a lover |
| You never cry like a lover |
| Cry (You never cry like a lover) |
| You never cry (Cry like a lover) |
| Come on and cry (You never cry like a lover) |
| Cry (You never cry like a lover) |
| (You never cry like a lover) |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chords:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Here's the electric part to You Never Cry Like a Lover.
| Bernie has some great riffs in here, and I don't know |
| if I've got them all right, but I tried. Good luck! |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is the intro, played the second time through the intro chords.
| Variations of this are played during each chorus, just play around |
| with it to get it. It shouldn't be too hard. |
