Flatt and Scruggs – Crying Alone lyrics

(G) I could see it coming a (D) long time ago
That someday you'd leave me, and (D7) I'd miss you (G) so
You said it couldn't (G7) happen, that you were my (C) own
That I'd never be unhappy, left (D) cryin? a-(G)-lone

(G) Cryin? alone, 'cause (D) nobody to care
I whisper your name, (D7) and wish you were (G) here
I'm alright through the day, but from (G7) darkness till (C) dawn
I (D) find myself cryin?. (D7) just cryin? a-(G)-lone

turn around

(G) I know, that I'm a fool, but (D) what can I do
The tears could start a river that I've (D7) cried over (G) you
My dreams are all shattered, how (G7) can I go (C) on
With (D) no one to love me, just (D7) cryin? a-(G)-lone

(G) Cryin? alone, cause (D) nobody cares
I whisper your name, (D7) and wish you were (G) here
I'm alright through the day, but from (G7) darkness till (C) dawn
I (D) find myself cryin?, just (D7) cryin? a-(G)-lone
