TASTE - IF I DON'T SING I'LL CRY (Gallagher) From ON THE BOARDS
album. Released January 1970.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:PJVillanueva
You broke my heart,
But you opened up my eyes,
Yes I've been a fool,
Now I realize.
If I can't walk I'll fly,
If I can't sing I'll cry.
I hit the ground,
Made me feel a whole lot better,
Ain't no sense for her to go,
Well, how can I just let her?
Now if I can't walk I'll fly,
If I can't sing I'll cry.
You broke my heart,
Put tears into my eyes,
You must go your way,
I know how fast I've crashed.
Well if I can't walk I'll fly,
If I can't sing I'll cry.
If I can't walk I'll fly,
Well if I can't sing I'll cry,
If I can't sing I'll die.
