Nixons

Nixons - Don T Cry guitar chord

The Nixons - Don't Cry

This is a fairly simple song.  I'm not sure of the words exactly, since they aren't printed in the insert.  This song is played tuned down 1/2 step.  I just listened to the song to get the tuning right, but I am pretty sure that it is 1/2 a step down.  

The C with a * beside it is a different fingering.  If you know how to play Sister then it's the same C played in that song, but for those who don't here's the fingering:

C* -  0 3 2 0 3 0

G   -  3 2 0 0 0 3

Em - 0 2 2 0 0 0

C   -  0 3 2 0 1 0

D5 -  0 0 0 2 3 0

G                 Em C

If you ever turn, if you ever stop, and ask the question

G                  Em C

If you only knew the right question

G                 Em                          C

Take a look around, you're the only one still here

G                               Em            C

And the lights went out hours ago

Pre-Chorus

D5                             C*

It all started out, so innocent

D5                              C

Is where we are so wrong?

Chorus

G                  D5                    Em                                C*

Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G               D5         C

Just try to learn to stay

Verse 2

G                Em                  C

If you ever go to another place just know I'm trying

G              Em                 C

To keep what I can together

G                        Em                       C          

I'm seeing for a time, I can never fill the empty space that you

G        Em                       C

Keep inside to be more alone

Pre-Chorus

D5                              C*

It all started out so innocent

D5                             C

Is where we are so wrong?

Chorus

G                D5                     Em                          C*

Don't cry, I only hurt you once and then you walk away

G               Em        C

Just try to learn to stay

Chorus x2

Bridge

D5                                 C*

I know the clouds are coming  (but it's not enough to tell)

D5                                  C*

The way the sunlight's burning (it brings another day)

D5                              C*

Don't go (don't go) no matter what I say

Guitar Solo

Just play G Em C

Pre-Chorus

Chorus x2

Then there's kind of an ending verse

G            D5              Em                        C*

I wanted to see you just one last time before your flight

G             D5             Em              C*

I wanted to be your fuse on the fourth of July

G            D5             Em               C*

I wanted to see you just one last time before you go

G           D5          Em           C*

I wanted to only, let you know

Then play G Em C a few times repeating the words "let you know" every once in a while, and then end on G.
