A D A
I sat in with a band down in Dallas
E D A
I'd been introduced as a guest
D A
When a little white haired man approached the bandstand
D E7 A
Said I wonder if you'd play one last request

[Chorus]
A D A
Oh please play me a song I can cry to
E D A
Sad songs are music to my ears
A D A
Play me a song I can cry to
D E7 A
Play me a song that sounds like tears

[Verse]
A D A
I stood by as the band started playing
E D A
And I didn't even try to play along
D A
Aw my eyes had followed him back to the corner
D E
Where he sat down at a table all alone

[Verse]
A D A
And a smile slowly came across his teardrops
E D A
And I watched as he slowly bowed his head
D A
Just before he left this world for one much better
D E A
I remember the little lonely man had said

[Chorus]
A D A
Oh please play me a song I can cry to
E D A
Sad songs are music to my ears
A D A
Play me a song I can cry to
D E7 A
Play me a song that sounds like tears
D E7 A
Play me a song that sounds like tears
