I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
Oh no, my heart is filled with sorrow,
and my eyes are full of grief.
[Bb] [G] Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
Well, my mother often told me,
things will be fine and sweet.
She said how I would have complained,
[A] if I'd trust in God and pray.
[G] I'm on a killing tirade,
I'd break in everything.
But I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
[A] Oh [G] no, my heart is filled with sorrow,
and my eyes are full of grief.
[Bb]
[G] Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
[Em] [G]
I thought when she first left me,
I'd grieve a little while.
Soon it all would be over,
[D] and I'd turn the awkward smile.
[G] I thought when I'd get older,
I'd think of what I'd told her.
But I just can't keep from crying sometimes.
But I just can't keep from crying [A] sometimes.
[G] Oh no, my heart is filled with sorrow,
and my eyes are full of grief.

[G] Well, I just can't keep from crying [Bb] [Cm] sometimes.
