[Verse 1]
G                                Am
They say that once the tear has fallen
D                     G
The willow cries eternally


[Hook]
E           Am
Cry not for me, my willow tree
E               Am
Don't shed your tears eternally
E            Am         D        G
Cause I have found the love I've searched for
E                    Am
I need your tears no more
D       G
No more


[Verse 2]
 G                       Am
So baby where's my weeping willow
D                       G
And if we'll ever meet again


[Hook]
E            Am
Cry not for me, my willow tree
E               Am
Don't shed your tears eternally
E            Am         D          G
Cause I have found the love I've searched for
E                   Am  Am7
I need your tears no more
D      G
No more

And if we'll ever meet again


[Hook]
E            Am
Cry not for me, my willow tree
E               Am
Don't shed your tears eternally
E             Am        D          G
Cause I have found the love I've searched for
E                    Am  Am7
I need your tears no more
D      G
No more
