Version 1[Intro] C G Am F x3 C G Am [Verse 1] F C G Am A moment of steel; a dry-eyed house F C G Am Did he say goodbye to you or did you kick him out? F C G Am I know you're not afraid to go alone F C G Am F But this was a marriage of spirit, flesh, and bone [Interlude] C G Am F C G Am [Verse 2] Now whatcha gonna do when the planet shifts? Whatcha gonna do - gonna slit your wrists? And bleed all over the milky way The stars in your eyes look red today [Chorus] Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove Spill it all over your heart from above Cry love, cry love [Mandolin Break] C G Am F C G Am [Verse 3] The trust of a woman in his hand But he was a little boy and not a man You loved him stronger than he could feel Yeah, he was wrapped up in himself like an orange peel [Verse 4] Now whatcha gonna do with the booze and the blush? Whatcha gonna do when there's no rush? Cop a little misery at the corner store Well, one day that train of pain will stop no more [Chorus] Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove Spill it all over your heart from above Cry love, cry love [Mandolin Break] C G Am F x3 C G Am [Verse 5] Throwing up ashes on the floor If this is a lesson in love, well what's it for? The heart will remember the burning fire The next time you feel the flame of desire [Chorus] (x2) Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove Spill it all over your heart from above Cry love, cry love
