DRY YOUR EYES MATE THE STREETS
Capo 2nd fret
(slowly)
G D Em C
G
In one single moment your whole life can turn 'round
I stand there for a minute starin’ straight into the ground
Cmaj7
Lookin’ to the left slightly, then lookin’ back down
World feels like it’s caved in – proper sorry frown
G
Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us
I can change and I can grow or we could adjust
Cmaj7
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust
We can even have an open relationship, if you must
G
I look at her she stares almost straight back at me
But her eyes glaze over like she’s lookin’ straight through me
Cmaj7
Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity
When they open up she’s lookin’ down at her feet
G
Dry your eyes mate
Cmaj7
I know it’s hard to take but her mind has been made up
Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
There’s plenty more fish in the sea
G
Dry your eyes mate
Cmaj7
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
But you’ve got to walk away now
It’s over
G
So then I move my hand up from down by my side
It's shakin’, my life is crashin’ before my eyes
Cmaj7
Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh
G
‘Cause I can’t imagine my life without you and me
There’s things I can’t imagine doin’, things I can’t imagine seein’
Cmaj7
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely
Please, please, I beg you please
G
She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested
She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she’s blessed with
Cmaj7
She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures
By pushin’ my hand away to my chest, from hers
Dry your eyes mate
I know it’s hard to take but her mind has been made up
There’s plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you’ve got to walk away now
It’s over
( Play chords slowly, quietly )
G D
And I’m just standin’ there, I can’t say a word
Em C
‘Cause everythin’s just gone I’ve got nothin’
G
Absolutely nothin’
G
Tryin’ to pull her close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around her tryin’ to change what she’s sayin’
Cmaj7
Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in
Look into her eyes to make her listen again
G
I’m not gonna f***in’, just f***in’ leave it all now
‘Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow
Cmaj7
And you’re gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You’re well out of order now, this is well out of town
G
She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist
Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight
Cmaj7
Turns around so she’s now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away
G
Dry your eyes mate
Cmaj7
I know it’s hard to take but her mind has been made up
Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
There’s plenty more fish in the sea
G
Dry your eyes mate
Cmaj7
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
But you’ve got to walk away now
It’s over
G
I know in the past I’ve found it hard to say
C
Tellin’ you things, but not tellin’ straight
G
But the more I pull on your hand and say
C D
The more you pull away
Dry your eyes mate
I know it’s hard to take but her mind has been made up
There’s plenty more fish in the sea
G
Dry your eyes mate
D Em
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
C G
But you’ve got to walk away now
