VERSE 2:
(after verse 1 both rhythm guitars kick in with a little slide on the low e-string - this ultra-cool thing that guitarists just do - listen to it with headphones and you'll hear what I mean)

I would tell you...

I took you for granted...
VERSE 4:
like Verse 2 (so it's just the main riff without the lead)
Now I would do most anything...
CHORUS:
It's pretty the same as the previous chorus, but the lead varies a little (it's nothing new). If you listen to the record there won't be any problems I think.
C'est ca.
LYRICS:
Verse 1:
I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I've said too much / Been too unkind
Verse 2:
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness / Plead with you
But I know that it's too late
And now there's nothing I can do
Interlude:
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to Laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes ('cause)
Chorus:
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Verse 3:
I would tell you that I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already gone away
Bridge:
Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Verse 4:
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes ('cause)
Chorus:
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
