Intro:
| A augmentedA | D/AD/A | A augmentedA | E6E6 F#dim7F#dim7 E7/G# |
Verse:
A augmentedA A augmentedA B minorBm A/C#A/C# D MajorD
I told her to leave me a- lone
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA A augmentedA E/G# F# minorF#m E MajorE E7E7
That's what she's done, just what she's done
A augmentedA D MajorD
And a house built for two, ain't a home
D MajorD D/C# D/B A augmentedA A augmentedA E/G# F# minorF#m E MajorE E7E7
When it's lived in by one, one lone-ly one
Chorus:
D MajorD D MajorD
And I can no longer hear footsteps
D MajorD D/C# D/B A augmentedA | G+G | D MajorD |
Come right down the hall
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA D/AD/A :
Here come the teardrops
A augmentedA E MajorE E7E7 | A augmentedA | % | A7A7 |
Bitter they are, harder they fall
Bridge:
A7A7 D MajorD | A7A7 | D MajorD |
She caught me lying
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA | E MajorE | A augmentedA |
Then she caught a train
A augmentedA B minorBm A/C#A/C# BB B7B7
And I caught a feve-er
B minorBm G+G E MajorE E7E7
Walking home in the rai-ai-ain (oh yeah)
Chorus:
A augmentedA D/AD/A
But it's over and I’m done
A augmentedA D MajorD A7A7 D MajorD
She left me once and for all (once and for all)
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA
Here come the teardrops
A augmentedA E/G# F# minorF#m E MajorE E7E7 | A augmentedA | A augmentedA B minorBm A/C#A/C# | D MajorD |
Bi--tter they are, harder they fall
D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm A augmentedA
Here come the teardrops
A augmentedA E/G# F# minorF#m E MajorE E7E7 D MajorD :
Bi--tter they are, harder they fall
