The original studio recording is a bit sharp of standard
concert pitch, so to play along use a chromatic tuner and
tune up to approx.(minus)-40 below C#.
Alternatively you will find that, in general, live versions
are more likely to be in standard pitch.

C   = x32010  G7  = 323003  G  = 320033

F   = 133211  G/B = x20033  Bb  = x13331
Fm   = 133111  Em/B = x22000  Ab  = 466544

[Verse 1]
      C              C
I was al - right, for a while, I could smile for a while,
      C               C+add9
But when I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight,
      F         Fm
When you stopped to say hel - lo,
         C         G7
And though you wished me well, you couldn't tell...


[Chorus]
 G7 Am7 G/B  C    Em/B    C    Em/B
That I'd been crying---- over you, crying---- over you,
   F     G          F         G
Then you said, "So long!", left me standing ...all a - lone,
      C   C+add9  F   Fm
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying,
       C    Am
It's hard to under - stand,
      G                 C
That the touch of your hand ...can start me crying!


[Verse 2]
        C       C       C
I thought that I ...was over you, but it's true, so true,
      C        C+add9
I love you even more, than I did before,
    F         Fm      C
But, darling, what can I do, for you don't love me,
      G7
And I'll always be...


[Chorus]
 C     Em/B    C     Em/B
Crying---- over you, crying---- over you
 F    G           F      G
Yes----, now you're gone, and, from this moment on,
      C       C+add9
I'll be crying, (crying) crying, (crying)
 F        Fm       C
Crying, (crying) crying---, I'm crying-------,
 C   Am  F   G
Crying------- o-----ver----...
  C       Bb       Ab  G    C
...You---------------------------------------------!
