Intro:
| A | D/A | A | E6 F#dim7 E7/G# |


Verse:
  A           A     Bm A/C# D
I told her to leave me a-   lone
D      A/C# Bm    A     A    E/G# F#m   E       E7
That's what she's done, just what she's done
       A                           D
And a house built for two, ain't a home
          D     D/C# D/B A    A   E/G# F#m E      E7
When it's lived in   by  one, one lone-ly  one


Chorus:
    D                    D
And I can no longer hear footsteps
     D     D/C# D/B A    | G | D |
Come right down the hall
D    A/C# Bm  A            D/A :
Here come the teardrops
A           E    E7         | A | % | A7 |
Bitter they are, harder they fall


Bridge:
A7            D      | A7 | D |
She caught me lying
     D   A/C#   Bm A     | E | A |
Then she caught a  train
    A Bm     A/C# B    B7
And I caught a    feve-er
                    Bm  G  E            E7
Walking home in the rai-ai-ain (oh yeah)


Chorus:
         A            D/A
But it's over and I’m done
A                        D     A7           D
She left me once and for all  (once and for all)
D    A/C# Bm  A
Here come the teardrops
A   E/G# F#m  E    E7         | A | A Bm A/C# | D |
Bi--tter they are, harder they fall
D    A/C# Bm  A
Here come the teardrops
A   E/G# F#m  E    E7          D :
Bi--tter they are, harder they fall
