Love In Vain
-1 -2 -2 -2 -3′ -2 -3 -3
I followed her to the station
-1 -1 -3 -2 -3 2 -2
with her suitcase in my hand
-4 5 -4 5 5 -4 5 3
I followed her to the station
-1 -1 -3 -2 -3 2 -2
with her suitcase in my hand
-4 -3 -4 -4 -3 -3 -2 -2 -1
It’s so hard to tell, so hard to tell
2 3 -3′ 2 -2
When your love’s in vain,
-4 -4 4 -3′ -2
All my love’s in vain
