Early in the mornin', before the crack of dawn.

I'm so broken hearted, I just can't go on.

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)
C Am
Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)
[Verse 2]
Am C Am
Now I was so happy, with you by my side.

You told me you loved me, but honey, you lied.

You left me here crying, how can I go on?

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)

The night seems like a million years..

waitin' till the break of day appears.

All night long weeping like a willow,

tossing and turning on my tear-stained pillow,

guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.

I'm gonnna go walking by the railroad track.

I'm just gonna let the Choo-Choo, cross over my back.

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)
