(G) They tell me little darlin`,
That to- (C) morrow you`ll be (G) wed,
You thought that you would hurt me,
But you (A7) hurt yourself in- (D7) stead,
I`ll (G) always be the same old pal,
Just (C) as in years gone (G) by,
I`ll (C) just set back and (G) watch you,
While you (D7) set alone and (G) cry.
[Chorus]
(G) Tears fallin` (C) down your pretty (G) cheeks,
Tears you cannot hide and (A7) tears you cannot (D7) keep,
They are tears of sorrow and (C) tears of de- (G) light,
I wish I had a nickel, for every (D7) tear you shed last (G) night.
I just dropped by to tell you that I wish you happi-ness,
I hope that you`ll forgive me for in-truding like this,
I hope my dear your happiness will follow through the years,
I`ll just set back and watch you, while you shed those bitter tears.
[Chorus]
