Em         G+      G           C#m7-5
Starlight falling through your hair
Cmaj7                     Am7
Sometimes I wonder if you know I'm there
 Em           G+        G            C#m7-5
Awake in the morning a smile on your face
    Cmaj7                   Am7
The same old feeling that I just can't place

Chorus:
             G     Am7  Bm7
And you say don't cry, baby
     Am7                             D
You know I'll always be the one who cares
 G     Am7  Bm7
Don't cry, baby
      Am7                          D
Come closer let me wipe away your tears

A man came in with a violin
He played for me like I've never been
Courted before and forevermore
As the bow touched the strings,
he made the whole world sing

Chorus:
Don't cry, baby (Baby, don't you cry)
You know there'll always be someone who cares
Don't cry, baby (Baby, don't you cry)
Come closer let me wipe away your tears

C                  D
I know I've been wrong
Gmaj7               C
You've had to be strong
Am7          D       E  F#m7 G#m7
I guess I belong to you, my baby
(Baby, don't you cry)

Chorus:
(Baby, don't you cry)
You know I'll always be the one who cares
Don't cry baby (Baby, don't you cry)
Come closer, let me wipe away your tears

The sound of your voice singing songs in the night
Have taken me far away and mystified
The songs of the lovers brought tears to my eyes
The words that you'd spoken made me realize
