INTRO:
 Bb                 Gm7       C               F
(I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.)

#1.
Bb                F                  C
They say a little tear can't hurt an awful lot.
          Gm7                        C
But it'll break your heart when it's caused by someone 
F
who's forgot.
C                 F     Cm         Bb
They say a little tear, won't ever go away.
                Gm7            C                  F
Til someone who forgot to stay home comes home to stay.

CHORUS:
    Bb                       Gm7   F
I'm countin' my teardrops as they, fall one by one.
     C                             F       Gm7 F
Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye-eye-eye.
    Bb                          F
I'm countin' my teardrops as I, sit alone and cry.
              Bb       Gm7       C                F
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.

#2.
F                                C
Things aren't right, my world is at an end.
       Bb                                  F
And my dreams have gone to pieces, seems I just can't

win.
F                         Cm         Bb
Since you've been gone, I don't know what I'll do.
Bb                                    C
Cause my dreams were all built around dreams that'll never 
     F
come true.

CHORUS:
    Bb                       Gm7   F
I'm countin' my teardrops as they, fall one by one.
     C                             F       Gm7 F
Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye-eye-eye.
    Bb                          F
I'm countin' my teardrops as I, sit alone and cry.
              Bb       Gm7       C                F
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.


OUTRO:
              Bb       Gm7       C               F    Bb F
And I'll keep countin' teardrops til you're back again.
