Cornfield Crybaby chords by Layni H

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Verse:
E
My heart aches through the summer
A
And you act like my lover
E                               A
So I push you away and close my eyes
E
And you tell me you love me
A
But it’s just not the right time
E                       A
So I try to date other guys


Pre-Chorus:
E

But when they smile at me, I see you

And when they make me laugh, I hear you
A
In the back of my mind
E
And if you ever took my hand

I think wouldn’t be so angry
A
But I swear it’s fine
                B             A
And maybe I hoped too hard
                B                  A
But maybe you really broke my heart


Chorus:
E
And I don’t want to hate you
A
But there’s no other way to
E
Get over it
A
So I’ll go sit in the tall grass

Somewhere you can’t find me
E                     B            A
And be a cornfield crybaby


Verse:
E
And you moved on without me
A
So I find myself doubting
E                                         A
The words you said and what they really meant


Pre-Chorus:
E
When she smiles, do you see me

When you laugh at her jokes, do you hear me
A
In the back of your mind
E
Then she dumped you on the sidewalk

And you turned around and saw me
A
And swore you were fine
                B         A
And maybe I hoped too hard
                B               A
But maybe you really broke my heart


Chorus:
E
And I don’t want to hate you
A
But there’s no other way to
E
Get over it
                A
So I’ll go sit in the tall grass

Somewhere you can’t find me
E                   B  A
And be a cornfield crybaby


Bridge:
E
And the tall grass grows up through my bones
A
The summer sun burns out and it gets cold
E                       A
Never to have you, and never to hold
E
When the tall grass gets cut in the spring (I got tired of waiting)
A
You’ll run through it all to look for me (I got tired of waiting)
E
But you wont find anything (I got tired of waiting)
A
And you’ll understand what it means
E               B          A
To be a cornfield crybaby

(Ah, ah)

E
