[Intro] C - Em - C - G7
          C
I was all right, for a while,

        C
I could smile for a while

           C
But when I saw you last night,

            C+
you held my hand so tight

         F                 Fm
when you stopped to say hello

               C
And though you wished me well,

    G7
you couldn't tell

            C     Em
That I'd been crying over you,

C      Em
 crying over you

        F        G7
When you said "So long",

       F              G7
left me standing all a- lone

         C     C+     F      Fm
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying

    C
It's hard to understand,

         G7
that the touch of your hand

             C
Can start me crying

               C
I thought that I was over you,

         C
but it's true, so true

           C
I love you even more,

      C+
than I did before

    F                   Fm
But darling, what can I do,

        C
for you don't love me

        G7
And I'll always be,

C      Em
 crying over you,

C      Em
 crying over you

    F         G7
Yes, now you're gone

             F     G7
and from this moment on

       C     C+     F      Fm
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying

    C
It's hard to understand,

          G7
That the touch of your hand

            C     C
Can start me crying, crying
