Dont Cry For Me Argentina Tab

by Andrew Lloyd Webber


				    
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange 
                            
when I try to explain how I feel 
                                
that I still need your love after all that I've done. 
                                      
You won't believe me, all you will see is a girl you once knew 
                                
although she's dressed up to the nines 
                            
at sixes and sevens with you. 

I had to let it happen, I had to change 
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel 
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun 
So I chose freedom, running around trying everything new 
But nothing impressed me at all. 
I never expected it to. 

                 
Don't cry for me, Argentina 
                              
The truth is, I never left you 
                                 
All through my wild days, my mad existence 
                                             
I kept my promise. Don't keep your distance. 

And as for fortune, and as for fame 
I never invited them in 
though it seemed to the world they were all I desired. 
They are illusions, they're not the solutions they promised to be 
The answer was here all the time: 
I love you, and hope you love me. 
          
Don't cry for me, Argentina . . . . 

hums a chorus 

Don't cry for me, Argentina 
the truth is, I never left you 
All through my wild days, my mad existence 
I kept my promise. Don't keep your distance. 


Have I said too much? 
                                      
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you. 
                
But all you have to do is look at me to know 
                    
that every word is true.
