Something no little tear of yours can change

G                                 Bm
Like in that famous poem by Verlaine

Em                               C  D
Like some ill wind, I'll blow away

Bm                              C
Remember the good times that we had

Bm                        C       D
Turn pale or suffocate, I truly regret

G                       Bm
Yeah, I'm sorry to say that I'm going away

       Em
You ask me, did I love you?

        C           D
Well, I loved you, okay

G                                      Bm
I just came here to say that I'm going away

Em                                C      D
Something no long sob of yours can change

G                                  Bm
Like in that great old poem by Verlaine

Em                           C    D
Like some dead leaf, I'll blow away

Bm                                    C
You remember the sweet things that we said

Bm                           C       D
Turn gray or moan or sway, I truly regret

G                             Bm
Yeah, I'm sorry to say I only came to say I'm going away

    Em                            C
Babe, because you did too much to me

D
Cry

I just came to say that I'm going away

Em                                        C   D
Something no little tear of yours can change

G                                            Bm
And it's just like that great old poem by Verlaine

Em                                    C            D
My memory strays the better days, I'm bound to go away

Bm                                     C
You remember the good times, yeah, oh, cry

Bm                         C              D
Turn pale or suffocate, I came to say goodbye

G                        Bm                                  Em
I'm sorry to say that I came to tell you I'm going away, babe

You're gonna cry

Cry, cry, cry

         G             Bm                Em    C    D
Too many teardrops for one heart to be crying

         G             Bm                Em    C    D
Too many teardrops for one heart to carry on

           G              Bm
I hear you cry, cry, cry, cry

           Em             C    D
I hear you cry, cry, cry, cry
[Outro] G Bm Em C D
