I was all right for a while,
6 7 -7 -8 7 6
I could smile for a while
-8 8 -9 8 8 8
But I saw you last night,
8 -8 8 -9 8 8
you held my hand real tight
-8 8 -9 8 -7 -6 -5
As you stopped to say “Hel-lo”
-7 -7 -7 7 7 7 -7 -8 7
Oh, you wished me well, you could-n’t tell

7 -7 -8 8 7-7 6 7 7 10 -8
That I’d been cry-i-i-i-ing o-ver you,
8 7-7 6 7 7 10 -8
cry-i-i-i-ing o-ver you
7 -6 6 -6 6
When you said “so long”.
-5 -5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
Left me stand-ing all a-lone
-4 4 -5 -5 5 -5 5
A-lone and cry-ing, cry-ing,
-5 5 6 -5
Cry-ing cry-ing

5 5 5 7 5 5
It’s hard to un-der-stand
5 5 7 -4 -4 -4
but the touch of your hand
-4 5 -5 -5 5
Can start me cry-ing

I thought that I was over you
but it’s true, so true
I love you more than I did before
but darling what can I do
For you don’t love me and I’ll always be

Cry-i-i-i-ng over you, cry-i-i-i-ng over you
Yes, now you’re gone and from this moment on
I’ll be crying, crying, crying, cry-i-i-ing
Yeah crying, crying, o-o-o-o-ver you
