First You Cry

Percy Sledge - First You Cry CAPO: 2nd Fret [Intro]              [Verse 1] It don’t come cheap   When they look like that   And they’re so hard to keep   And they move so fast   Soon you’ll find   It’s all for the best   Put the past behind   And the hurt to rest [Chorus] But first you cry Then you sigh Somebody lied And you can’t run and hide Don’t be so sad It ain’t so bad You’ll get by   Oh but first you cry     [Verse 2] Candy Mountains   Streets of Gold   Oh the promises   How they just turn cold   Till the sun will shine   There will be warmer days   You’ll be feeling fine   If you just walk away [Chorus] But first you cry Then you sigh Somebody lied And you can’t run and hide Don’t be so sad It ain’t so bad You’ll get by   Oh but first you cry [Instrumental]               [Bridge] Don’t look back   There’s nothing to gain   ’Cause there ain’t no happiness Without a little rain [Chorus] But first you cry Then you sigh Somebody lied And you can’t run and hide Don’t be so sad It ain’t so bad You’ll get by   Oh but first you cry [Chorus] First you cry Then you sigh Somebody lied And you can’t run and hide Don’t be so sad It ain’t so bad You’ll get by   Oh but first you cry
