[Verse 1]
  F         C        G        Am
A moment of steel; a dry-eyed house
    F          C                     G        Am
Did he say goodbye to you or did you kick him out?
  F                C        G   Am
I know you're not afraid to go alone
    F          C                   G          Am    F
But this was a marriage of spirit, flesh, and bone

Now whatcha gonna do when the planets shift?
F             C          G         Am
Whatcha gonna do - gonna slit your wrists?
    F         C        G     Am
And bleed all over the Milky Way
    F             C         G     Am
The stars in your eyes look red today
 
[Chorus]
F   C     G   Am
Cry love, cry love
    F           C          G          Am
The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove
F            C         G           Am
Spillin' all over your heart from above
F   C     G   Am   F
Cry love, cry love

[Verse 3]
    F          C     G      Am
The trust of a woman in his hand
    F         C             G     Am
But he was a little boy and not a man
    F         C             G        Am
You loved him stronger than he could feel
      F              C                     G      Am
Yeah, he was wrapped up in himself like an orange peel

    F             C           G             Am
Now whatcha gonna do with the booze and the blush?
F             C       G          Am
Whatcha gonna do when there's no rush?
F            C             G      Am
Cop a little misery at the corner store
      F            C                   G       Am
Well, one day that train of pain won't stop no more
 
[Chorus]
F   C     G   Am
Cry love, cry love
    F           C          G          Am
The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove
F            C         G           Am
Spillin' all over your heart from above

Throwing up ashes on the floor
   F          C                    G         Am
If this is a lesson in love, well, what's it for?
    F             C          G       Am
The heart won't remember the burning fire
    F             C              G    Am
The next time you feel the flame of desire
 
[Chorus]

Cry love, cry love

The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove
F            C         G           Am
Spillin' all over your heart from above
F   C     G   Am
Cry love, cry love
 
F   C     G   Am
Cry love, cry love
    F           C          G          Am
The tears of an angel, the tears of a dove
F            C         G           Am
Spillin' all over your heart from above
F   C     G   Am
Cry love, cry love
