@SONG: * LET HER CRY

(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)



G               D

 She sits alone by a lamppost

C (or Csus9)                                 G

 Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind

 She says Dad's the one I love the most

 But Stipe's not far behind



She never let's me in

Only tells me where she's been

When she's had too much to drink

I say that I don't care

I just run my hands through her dark hair

Then I pray to God you gotta help me fly away

And just...



            C

    Let her cry

           G

    If the tears fall down like rain

            C

    Let her sing

          Em    G       D

    If it eases all her pain

            C

    Let her go

            G

    Let her walk right out on me

               D

    And if the sun comes up tomorrow

            C           G

    Let her be, let her be



This morning I woke up alone

Found a note standing by the phone

Saying, "Baby, maybe I'll be back someday"

I wanted to look for you

You walked in I didn't know just what I should do

So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself

Saying...



(chorus)



(solo - 8 bars over verse)



(chorus)



Last night I tried to leave

Cried so much I could not believe

She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago

She went in the back to get high

And I sat down on my couch and cried

Yelling "Oh mama, please help me

Won't you hold my hand" 

And...



(chorus) x 2
