(Countin' teardrops til you're back again.)


#1.
Bb                F                  C
They say a little tear can't hurt an awful lot.
                     Gm              C
But it'll break your heart when it's caused by 
        F
someone who's forgot.
     C            F     C     Cm      Bb
They say a little tear, won't ever go away..
                   Gm             C
til someone who forgot to stay at home comes 
        F
home to stay.



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


#2.
F                                C
Things aren't right, my world is at an end.
       Gm                          F
And my dreams have gone to pieces, seems I just 

can't win.
F                 Dm7   Cm           Bb
Since you've been gone, I don't know what I'll do.
Bb                                  C
Cause my dream world's built around dreams that'll 
           F
never come true.



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



OUTRO:
              Bb       Gm        C
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back 
F     Bb F
again.
