[Intro: ](E) (B) (E)
I can't (E) stand to see, a good man go to (A) waste
One who (E) never combs his hair or shaves his (B) face
A (E) man who leans on wine, over love that's told a (A) lie
Oh it (E) tears me up to (B) see a grown man (E) cry
So (E) I never go around (A) mirrors
I can't (E) stand to see me
Without you by my (B) side
(E) I never go around (A) mirrors
'Cause (E) I've got a (B) heartache to (E) hide
(E) (E) (A) (A) (E) (E) (B) (B) (E)
I can't (E) stand to be, where heartaches hang a(A)round
'Cause it's so (E) easy for the blues to get me (B) down
(E) To see a grown man crawl, is more than I can (A) stand
I can't (E) look into the (B) eyes of half a (E) man
So (E) I never go around (A) mirrors
I can't (E) stand to see me
Without you by my (B) side
(E) I never go around (A) mirrors
'Cause (E) I've got a (B) heartache to (E) hide
And it tears me up to (B) see a grown man (E) cry
