Don’t Cry For Me Argentina – Evita (Andrew Lloyd Weber)
[Intro]
C Am G7 F Am7 F Em Dm Em C
[Verse 1]
G C Am G7 F Em
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange, when I try to explain how I feel,
Dm F Em Dm Em
That I still need your love after all that I've done.
G7 Am Em G GM7
You won't be - lieve me, all you see is a girl you once knew,
Em Dm Em Dm Am G7 Em G
Although she's dressed up to the nines, at sixes and sev – ens with you.
[Verse 2]
F Em F G C Am G
I had to let it happen, I had to change, couldn't stay all my life down at heel,
Dm Em F Em Dm C
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun.
G7 Am Em G Dm7
So I chose freedom, running around trying everything new,
Em Dm Em Dm Am G GM7 G
But nothing impressed me at all, I never expected it to.
[Chorus]
C Em G7 F G Am C Am G7 F Em
Don't cry for me, Ar–gen–ti-na, the truth is, I ne-ver left you,
Em F G Dm Em G7 Am C G7 C Am C G Am C
All through my wild days, my mad existence, I kept my promise, don't keep your distance.
[Verse 3]
G C Am G
And as for fortune, and as for fame, I never invited them in,
Dm Em F C Dm Em
Though it seemed to the world they were all I de-sired.
Am Em Am7 D
They are illusions, they're not the solutions they promised to be,
Em Dm Em Dm Am G GM7 G
The answer was here all the time: I love you, and hope you love me.
[Chorus]
C Em G7 F G Am C G7 F Em
Don't cry for me, Ar–gen–ti–na, ... (Crowd hums chorus) ...
Em F G Dm Em G7 Am C G7 C Am C G Am C
(Crowd hums chorus) ... (Crowd hums chorus) ... (Crowd hums chorus).
C Em G7 F G Am C Am G7 F Em
Don't cry for me, Ar–gen–ti-na, the truth is, I ne-ver left you,
Em F G Dm Em G7 Am C G7 C Am C G Am C
All through my wild days, my mad existence, I kept my promise, don't keep your distance
[Verse 4]
Em Dm C Dm G7 G C G Em C
Have I said too much, there's nothing more I can think of to say to you,
Em Dm C Em Dm G Em
All you have to do is, look at me to know, that ev – ery word is true.
