INTRO:
 Bb majorBb         Gm7Gm7    C majorC        FF
(I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.)

#1.
Bb majorBb        FF         C majorC
They say a little tear can't hurt an awful lot.
     Gm7Gm7            C majorC
But it'll break your heart when it's caused by someone
FF
who's forgot.
C majorC         FF   C minorCm     Bb majorBb
They say a little tear, won't ever go away.
        Gm7Gm7      C majorC         FF
Til someone who forgot to stay home comes home to stay.

CHORUS:
  Bb majorBb            Gm7Gm7  FF
I'm countin' my teardrops as they, fall one by one.
   C majorC               FF    Gm7Gm7 FF
Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye-eye-eye.
  Bb majorBb             FF
I'm countin' my teardrops as I, sit alone and cry.
       Bb majorBb    Gm7Gm7    C majorC        FF
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.

#2.
FF                C majorC
Things aren't right, my world is at an end.
    Bb majorBb                 FF
And my dreams have gone to pieces, seems I just can't

win.
FF             C minorCm     Bb majorBb
Since you've been gone, I don't know what I'll do.
Bb majorBb                  C majorC
Cause my dreams were all built around dreams that'll never
   FF
come true.

CHORUS:
  Bb majorBb            Gm7Gm7  FF
I'm countin' my teardrops as they, fall one by one.
   C majorC               FF    Gm7Gm7 FF
Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye-eye-eye.
  Bb majorBb             FF
I'm countin' my teardrops as I, sit alone and cry.
       Bb majorBb    Gm7Gm7    C majorC        FF
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.


OUTRO:
       Bb majorBb    Gm7Gm7    C majorC        FF  Bb majorBb FF
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.
