CAPO: 3rd Fret
[G]She don't see no way around it
He shows [Em]every sign of leavin' her be[G]hind [Em]
After [G]three days stayin' out late
It don't [Em]look like he'll be comin' home to[G]night [D]
She wants to cry, but pride won't [Em]let her
She'll find [F]better things to [G]do
Leaves her key inside the mailbox
With a [Em]note that tells that cowboy where to [G]go [Em]
It's a [G]two day drive to Denver
With a [Em]U-Haul, if she doesn't take it [G]slow [D]
She wants to cry, but pride won't [Em]let her
She'll find [F]better things to [G]do
[CHORUS]
"Don't[Bm] let Dallas see you cryin'"
She re[Am7]minds herself, as [Am]she rolls out of [G]town
When she [Bm]hits that Texas border
She sets [Am7]pride aside and [Am]lets her tears come [G]down
Then she [Em]cries all the way to Colo[C]rado [Am]
'Cause it [Em]hurts like the devil to be [D]free
INTERLUDE: [G] [Em] [G]
Cuts her hair and finds a new job
And her [Em]friends all tell her, "Girl you're d[G]oin' fi[Em]ne"
Still the [G]nights get cold and lonely
When that [Em]wild west Texas cowboy haunts her [G]mind [D]
She wants to cry, but pride won't [Em]let her
She'll find [F]better things to [G]do
[CHORUS]
"Don't[Bm] let Dallas see you cryin'"
