[Intro 1]
[D][Asus4][A]
The [D]world is

[Verse 1]
big
and often wrong
But truth is bigger,
and twice as strong
Sometimes [G]ain't pretty,
sometimes ain't nice
But hold your [D]ground, dry your eyes
Here take my [Asus4]word, take my lif[A]e
Don't [D]cry[G][D]

[Verse 2]
They'll say they [D]love you
when juice is flowing
When money is gone,
they must be going
Sometimes they [G]bring
Coming from a friend
[D]But you be ready if it happens again
Here take my [Asus4]word, take my lif[A]e
Don't [D]cry[G][D]

[Verse 3]
Don't [G]cry when they wanna sell you
Don't [D]cry when they wanna fight
Don't [G]cry when they don't believe you
And [A]you know you're right
Don't [G]cry when they wanna paint you
Into [D]a corner of their design
[Em]It's your [Asus4]innocent blood they [Em]want
[A]It's your innocent mind

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]
[G]
[D]
[Asus4][A][D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
Don't [G]cry when they wanna sell you
Don't [D]cry when they wanna fight
Don't [G]cry when they don't
believe you
When [A]you know you're right
Don't [G]cry when they wanna paint you
Into [D]a corner of their design
[Asus4]It's your innocent blood they[Em] want[A]

[Verse 5]
It's your innocent, innocent mind
[A]
Well, the world is [D]big and often wrong
But your heart is bigger,
and twice as strong
Sometimes [G]a mystery,
sometimes it's blind
But it won't de[D]ceive you, it doesn't lie
Here take my [Asus4]word, tak[A]e my life
Don't [D]cry[G][D]

[Verse 6]
Here take my [Asus4]word, here take my [A]life
Don't [D]cry[G][D]
Here take my [Asus4]word, take my lif[A]e
[D]Don't cry
