D
I was all right for a while,

I could smile for a while But I saw you last night,

            D+*
you held my hand so tight,

       G                 Gm
as you stopped to say hello

        D              A
Oh, you wished me well, you couldn't tell,

that I'd been . .

Crying  over you

left me standing all alone

Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying

It's hard to understand,

        A             A7
but the touch of your hand,

             D
can start me crying

But darling, what can I do?

Cause you don't love me,

and I'll always be
