[Verse]
F# A#m B C#
She bites her nails as she waits for the train (Uh huh)
F# A#m B C#
You won't look up because you know she's insane (That's right)
F# A#m B C#
And if you touch her she'll shout through the tears
A# D# B C#
She'll pull your hair and scream in your ears
[Bridge]
B C# E(II) D#
"The meaning it goes away sometimes
B C# E(II) D#
I know all the words but they don't seem to rhyme
B C# A# D#
Sometimes all I can do is lie,"
B A# G# C#
She says as the water pours from her eyes
[Chorus]
F#
You can't
A# A G#
Make me cry
A# G#
You can try you can try
F#
But you can't
A# A G#
Make me cry
A# G#
You can try you can try
F#
But you can't
A# A G#
Make me cry
A# G#
You can try you can try
F#
But you can't
A# A G#
Make me cry
A# G# F#
You can try you can try
[Verse]
F# A#m B C#
"Bloody nose and a broken tooth
F# A#m B C#
Black and blue all over you,"
A#m B C#
You say as you walk her to the bus
A# B C#
You're beat enough for the two of us
[Bridge]
B C# E(II) D#
You'll go over under and backwards now
B C# E(II) D#
Only things that you want are what you're not allowed
B C# A# D#
The people trying to bring you down
B A# G# F# C#
Are the only ones who want you around
[Chorus]
F#
But they can't
A# A G#
Make you cry
A# G#
They can try they can try
F#
But they can't
A# A G#
Make you cry
A# G#
They can try they can try
F#
But they can't
A# A G#
Make you cry
A# G#
They can try they can try
F#
But they can't
A# A G#
Make you cry
A# G#
They can try they can try
[Outro]
