                   C

1. I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while,

                                                                          C7

    but when I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight

                       F                      Dm

    when you stopped to say hello.

                                C                               G

    And though you wished me well, you couldn't tell that I'd been

       C     Em              C    Em

    crying over you, crying over you.

                F           G                    F                G

    Then you said so long, left me standing all alone,

                       C        C7                Fm

    alone and crying, crying, crying, crying.

            C                     G

    It's hard to understand that the touch of your hand

                           C

    can start me crying.

 

                          C

2. I thought that I was over you, but it's true, so true,

                                                 C7                     F                          Fm

    I love you even more than I did before, but darling, what can I do?

                      C                         G

     Now you don't love me and I'll always be

       C     Em              C    Em

    crying over you, crying over you.

      F                      G                F                         G

   Yes, now you're gone,  and from this moment on,

                C        C7        F        Fm       C        Am F - G C - F - C - F - C

    I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying, I m crying, crying o ..ver you.
