Cry Pretty

	  		 
 


verse 1 
E 
  I'm sorry, but I'm just a girl 
    Abm 
Not usually the kind to show my heart to the world 
    A 
I'm pretty good at keeping it together 
  B 
I hold my composure, for worse or for better 

    E 
So I apologize if you don't like what you see 
    Abm 
But sometimes my emotions get the best of me 
    A 
And falling apart is as human as it gets 
          B 
You can't hide it, you can't fight what the truth is 



        E 
You can pretty lie and say it's okay 
        Abm 
You can pretty smile and just walk away 
        A 
Pretty much fake your way through anything 
        B             E 
But you can't cry pretty 



verse 2 
                E 
Oh no, you can’t dress it up in lace or rhinestones 
      Abm 
Don't matter if you're in a crowd or home all alone 
           A 
Yeah, it's all the same when you're looking in the mirror 
  B 
A picture of pain, so let it flow like a river 



        E 
You can pretty lie and say it's okay 
        Abm 
You can pretty smile and just walk away 
        A 
Pretty much fake your way through anything 
        B             
But you can't cry pretty 


          E 
You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks 
     Abm 
When all your mascara is going to waste 
     A 
When things get ugly, you just gotta face 
         C               B            E  
That you can't cra-ah-ah-ah-ah-ay pretty 


Interlude 
          Abm                              
Oh no you can't 
                            A          C  B 
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah 



          E 
You can't turn off the flood when the dam breaks 
     Abm 
When all your mascara is going to waste 
     A 
When things get ugly, you just gotta face 
         C               B            E  
That you can't cra-ah-ah-ah-ah-ay pretty-yea-eh-eh-eh-ay
