            I CRIED
       BRANDY CLARK feat. SOUTHERN FAMILY


INTRO:
A Asus4 A  E Esus4 E


VERSE:
      A Asus4 A
He was tough,
      A
Said he`d lived a good long life
     D     Dadd9 D
And he`d seen a lot,
 D
Watched 82 years fly by
      A      Asus4 A
And three kids grow up,
     E
Seen `em all have kids
            A Asus4 A  E Esus4 E
And grandkids of their own.

VERSE:
      A Asus4 A
He was brave.
     A
He was scared to die,
             D     Dadd9 D
Well, you couldn`t see it on his face.
 D                   A      Asus4 A
Like a soldier he marched through his numbered days.
 E
Made his peace with God
         A Asus4 A  E Esus4 E  F#m G#m
And then he was gone.


CHORUS:
  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E        Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E        A Asus4 A E Esus4 E  F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.

  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E         Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E          A   Asus4 A E
So that was all I could do.


VERSE:
       A Asus4 A
She was strong.
 A                D    Dadd9 D
Held his hand when he was barely holding on.
        D             A    Asus4 A
She told him, `Don`t worry about me, I`ll get along.
 E
You go on to Heaven.
      A   Asus4 A  E Esus4 E
Go on, and rest.`

 E     A  Asus4 A
Now she`s alone.
 A           D        Dadd9 D
Livin` the life that`s too much for one.
 D           A    Asus4 A
Just last night on the telephone,
E                A Asus4 A E Esus4 E  F#m G#m
I could hear the lonely in her line.


CHORUS:
  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E        Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E        A Asus4 A E Esus4 E  F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.

  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E         Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E         F#m
So that was all I could


INSTRUMENTAL:
F#m E  D  E  A  E  F#m G#m


CHORUS:
  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E        Esus4 E
Tried to hold my head high,
 E        A Asus4 A E Esus4 E  F#m G#m
Ended up in my hands.

  A  A7
I cried.
    D  Dm
Oh I cried.
 Dm    E         Esus4 E
There was nothing I could do,
E          A   Asus4 A
So that was all I could do.
A        E        Esus4 E
Oh, there was nothing I could do,
    A Asus4 A E
So I cried.
