  B            B    C#m  B   E
I told her to leave me a-   lone
E       B   C#m    B     B     F#   G#m  F#  F#7
That's what she's done, just what she's done
       B                            E
And a house built for two, ain't a home
           E     E    E   B   B    F#   G#m F# F#7
When it's lived in   by  one, one lone-ly   one

Chorus:
    E
And I can no longer hear footsteps
            E    E   B  A E
Come right down the hall
E     B   C#m  B        E 
Here come the teardrops
B           F#    F#7         B  B7
Bitter they are, harder they fall

B7             E     B7  E
She caught me lying
     E    B     C#m  B   F# B
Then she caught a  train
    B C#m     B   C#   C#7
And I caught a   feve-er
                    C#m A  F#       F#7
Walking home in the rai-ai-ain (oh yeah)

But it's over and I’m done
She left me once and for all  (once and for all)
Here come the teardrops
Bitter they are, harder they fall
Here come the teardrops
Bitter they are, harder they fall
