[Verse 1]
I was al - Cright, for a Cwhile, I could Csmile for a Cwhile,
But when I Csaw you last night, you held my Caug(add9)hand so tight,
When you Fstopped N.C.to say hel - Fmlo,
And though you Cwished me well, you G7couldn't tell...
[Chorus]
G7 That I'd been cCrying Em/Bover you, Ccrying Em/Bover you,
Then Fyou said, "GSo long!", left me Fstanding ...all a - Glone,
Alone and Ccrying, Caug(add9)crying, Fcrying, Fmcrying,
It's hard to Cunder - Amstand,
That the Gtouch of your hand can start me Ccrying
[Verse 2]
I thought that CI was over Cyou, but it's Ctrue, so Ctrue,
I love you Ceven more, than I Caug(add9)did before,
But, Fdarling, what can I Fmdo, for you Cdon't love me,
And I'll G7always be...
[Chorus]
CCrying oEm/Bver you, Ccrying Em/Bover you
FYes, Gnow you're gone, and, Ffrom this Gmoment on,
I'll be Ccrying, (crying) Caug(add9)crying, (crying)
FCrying, (crying) Fmcrying, I'm Ccrying,
CCrying---Am---- Fo - Gver...
