Permissible To Cry
Burton Cummings


Capo 1st Fret


[Intro]     A     F#m    D     A

A                                 F#m                      D
Running out of steam now don?t have the energy I once could have bragged of
A                                 F#m                    D
Running out of friendships it seems that the years brings a house so divided
A                                 F#m                    D
Running out of contacts is this what they mean when they talk about being lonely
A                                 F#m                    D
Running out of answers I made my own bed but I don't understand it


[Chorus]
F#m          D                                    F#m                            D
All I know is things are moving mighty fast don?t mind the change but I can't go it alone
F#m                          D                                A
All I wanna know is that sometimes it's permissible to cry


[Repeat Intro]    A     F#m    D     A


A                                 F#m                      D
I wanted to be a tough guy, never talked much but what feeling inside me
A                                F#m                   D
Never let my guard down, couldn?t tell a friend from a casual quaintest
A                                    F#m                       D
I play them all like chest men, the better the game the more moves I was using
A                                   F#m                     D
I talk about a lot of not ness; you get the most noise from the emptiness barrels





[Chorus]
F#m          D                                    F#m                            D
All I know is things are moving mighty fast don?t mind the change but I can't go it alone
F#m                          D                                A
All I wanna know is that sometimes it's permissible to cry




A                                   F#m                                          A
Sometimes I'm feeling like I'm all-wrong the simple things are taking too long
A                                   F#m                           A
Sometimes I'm feeling like I'm all-wrong about to waste another day
A                                   F#m                                         A
Sometimes I'm feeling like I'm all-wrong and I've been coming over too strong
                                    D                       A
And the things I was sayin didn't matter anyway

Running out of friendships it seems that the years brings a house so divided
A                                 F#m                    D
Running out of contacts is this what they mean when they talk about being lonely
A                                 F#m                    D
Running out of answers I made my own bed but I don't understand it



[Chorus]
F#m          D                                    F#m                            D
All I know is things are moving mighty fast don?t mind the change but I can't go it alone
F#m                          D                                A
All I wanna know is that sometimes it's permissible to cry




[Chorus]
F#m          D                                    F#m                            D
All I know is things are moving mighty fast don?t mind the change but I can't go it alone
F#m                          D                                A
All I wanna know is that sometimes it's permissible to cry
