[Verse 1]
G G7 C C7
Darlin’ when you told me you were leavin’
G G7* D7
I thought that you were only foolin’ me
G G7 C
But here I am to face old blue tomorrow
G D7 G
With a broken heart that’s filled with misery
[Chorus]
D D7 G
It seems that my world is to an end
A7 A D D7
Just dreamin’ of things that might have been
G G7 C
Oh why don’t that old sun shine right
G D7 G
Today’s the darkest day of my life
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G G7 C
Oh how I wish that old saying is true
G G7* D
It’s always darkest just before dawn
G G7 C
Then I’d know soon I’m gonna see the sunshine
G D G
I just can’t take this darkness on and on
[Outro]
D7 D G
It seems that my world is to an end
A7 A D D7
Just dreamin’ of things that might have been
G G7 C
Oh why don’t that old sun shine right
G D7 G
Today’s the darkest day of my life
