Cry Me A River:Julie London
9 on the Pop charts in 1955.
One of the best singers AND song,
ever,in my humble opinion.
(Slow blues)
[Verse 1]
A7 Am7
Now you say you're lonely,
Dm7 G7 C
You cry the whole night through,
E E7 A7 Am7
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river,
Dm7 E7 Am E E7
I cried a river over you.
[Verse 2]
A7 Am7
Now you say you're sorry,
Dm7 G7 C
For bein' so un..true,
E E7 A7 Am7
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river,
Dm7 E7 Am
I cried a river over you.
[CHORUS]
Am7 E7 Dm7 E7
You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head,
E Am Dm7 E7
while you never shed a tear.
Am7 E E7 Dm7 E7
Remember...I remember all that you said...
Am7 Am
told me love was too plebeian,
Am7 Am Bb7 E7
told me you were through with me...and...
[Verse 3]
A7 Am7
Now you say you love me,
Dm7 G7 C
Well, just to prove you do,
E E7 A7 Am7
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river,
Dm7 E7 Am Dm7 E7..Bb7 E7 Am
I cried a river over you.
[CHORUS]
Am7 E7 Dm7 E7
You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head,
E Am Dm7 E7
while you never shed a tear.

Remember...I remember all that you said...
Am7 Am
told me love was too plebeian,
Am7 Am Bb7 E7
told me you were through with me...and...
[Verse 3]
A7 Am7
Now you say you love me,
Dm7 G7 C
Well, just to prove you do,
