           C
I was all right, for a while,
I could smile for a while
But when I saw you last night,
             C+
you held my hand so tight
           F              Fm
when you stopped to say hello
                C
And though you wished me well,
     G7
you couldn't tell

Chorus:
                C    Em
That I'd been crying over you,
  C    Em
crying over you
       F        G7
When you said "So long",
          F            G7
left me standing all alone
            C       C+      F       Fm
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
      C
It's hard to understand,
          G7
that the touch of your hand
               C
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more than I did before
But, darling, what can I do
While you don't love me
And I'll always be

Chorus:
Crying, over you
Crying, over you
Yes, now you're gone
And from this moment on
I'll be crying (Crying)
Crying (Crying)
Crying (Crying)
Crying

I'm crying
Crying
Over you
