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,
     A7  A
that I'd been . .
 
D       F#m
Crying  over you
D       F#m
Crying  over you
     G           A
Then you said so long,
        G             A
left me standing all alone
          D       D+      G       Gm
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
             D
It's hard to understand,
        A             A7
but the touch of your hand,
             D
can start me crying
 
D
I thought that I, was over you,
 
but it's true, so true
 
I love you even more,
       D+
than I did before
    G                   Gm
But darling, what can I do?
          D
Cause you don't love me,
         A      A7
and I'll always be
 
D       F#m
Crying  over you
D       F#m
Crying  over you
G               A
Yes, now you're gone
    G                A
And from this moment on
        D       D+      G       Gm
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
 
    D       Bm
I'm crying, crying
G        A  A7 D
Oh-oh-oh-ov er you
 
A7 D G  D
