[C] [G]
I read your letter, darling, [Em] tears filled my eyes.
[G] All of the promises you made [A] were nothing [D] but lies.
[G] So I turned your photograph over, [C] face [G] to wall.
And when I dim the lights [C] in my [G] room [E] tonight,
[Em] [D] [G] Teardrops will fall,
[C] [G] teardrops will fall tonight.
[C] Tears I [G] can't hide,
[C] tears that [G] I'd rather keep.
[A] Deep down [D] inside, [G] tears from a love that's gone [C] beyond [G] the swan.
And [C] when I [G] dim the lights [C] in my room [G]
[Em] tonight,
[D] Teardrops [G] will fall.

I'm gonna pray tonight, [Em] babe, hoping you will hear.
[G] And maybe you'll right all those [A] wrongs and dry [D] each tear.

And [C] when I dim [G] the lights in my room tonight,
[Em] [D]
Teardrops [G] will fall, [C] [G]
