[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Two teardrops were floating down the [Gm] river [F] One teardrop [Bb] said to the [F] other
[Gm] I'm from [Fm] the soft blue [Gm] eyes of a woman [F] in love
_ [Bbm] _ _ [F] _ _
I'm a tear of joy [Bb] she couldn't carry [Gm]
[F] She was so happy she just got married
I was on her cheek [Bb] when she wiped me away with [F] her glove
_ _ _ _ I [Gm] could tell from the look on [F] her face she didn't [Bb] need me
_ _ _ _ [F] So [G] I drifted [F] on down and [Bb] caught me a ride to [C] the sea
[F] _ The [C] _ _ _ _
[F] other tear said we've got a connection I'm a tear of sorrow born of rejection _
[Gm] I'm from the [F] sad brown eyes of [Bb] her old [F] flame She _ _ _ _ told him they would be lifelong companions
Left him with questions and not any answers [Gm] I was on his cheek as he stood there [C] calling
her [F] name _ _ _ _ I [Gm] could tell he had a lot of [F] my friends for
[Bb] company _ So _ _ _ [F]
[Gm] I drifted [F] on down and [Bb] caught me [G] a ride
to the [C] sea _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] Oh the ocean's a little [Am] bit bigger tonight _
[Bb] Two more [F] teardrops somebody cried _
[Dm] One of them happy [Am] and one of them bluer [Bb] than blue
_ _ [C] _ _ _
[Dm] The tide goes out and [Am] the tide comes in [Bb] And someday there'll [F] be teardrops [C] again _
[Dm] Released in a moment [Am] of pleasure or a moment [Bb] of _ pain
_ _ [F] And [Gm] they drift [F] on down and ride to the sea again
_ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Last night I sat [Bbm] in the [F] waiting _ room A nurse walked in [Bb] and [F] gave me the news
[Gm] It's a baby [F] girl and they're both fine _ _ _ _ _ An old man sitting [Bb] not ten feet [F] away
Just lost his wife [Bb] and he said to [F] me _
[G] You've got a brand [F] new angel and I've lost
mine _ _ _ _ I [Gm] guess the good Lord giveth [F] and the good
Lord taketh [Bb] away _ And _ _ _ _
[Gm] we [F] both wiped a [Bb] _ [G] teardrop from [C] our face _ _ _ _
