Before The Next Teardrop Falls

S-L-O-W-L-Y with lots of feeling

8 -9 9 -10 9 8 7
If he brings you hap-pi-ness,
7 7 7 -5 -6 7 6
Then I wish you all the best,
-6 -7 7 -5 -6 7 -8 -8 -7 6 8
It’s your hap-pi-ness, that matt-ers most of all,
8 8 -9 9 -10 9 8 7
But if he ev-er breaks your heart,
7 7 7 -6 -7 8 7
If the tear-drops ev-er start,
-9 -9 8 -8 8 -9 8 -7 -8 7
I’ll be there be-fore the next tear-drop falls.
-8 8 -9 -9-9 9
I’ll be there an-y-time,
-9 -9 8 7 -8 8
You need me by your side,
8 8 -8 7 8-8 7 7 -7 -7 7 7 -8
To dry-y, a-wa-y, ev-ery tear-drop that you cried
8 8 -9 9-10 9 8 7
And if he ev-er leaves you blue,
7 7 7 -5 -6 7 6
Just re-mem-ber, I love you,
-9 -9 -9 8 -8 8 -9 8 -7 -8 7
And I’ll be there be-fore the next teardrop falls
-9 -9 -9 8 -8 8 -9 8 -7 -8 7
And I’ll be there be-fore the next teardrop falls
