Let The Teardrops Fall
By Patsy Cline (1958)
Written by C.C. Beam, C.L. Jiles and W.S. Stevenson
This is an astoundingly good song, sang to perfection
by Patsy Cline, and her band is simply perfect too in
particular starring one of the 'finest' Rocking lead
guitar instrumentals I've ever heard. It, truly ROCKS!
Be sure to give it a listen on youtube. (link at bottom)

G C
Let the teardrops fall you said you wasn't gonna call
D7 G
You didn't love me at all so let the teardrops fall
C
Since you've been gone I've been so blue
D7 G
And I spend my time just a thinking of you
C
Well I sit here at home by my telephone
G D7 G
Hoping you'll change your mind
C
Well it's you I dream of and I need your love
D7
So tell me you'll be mine
G C
Cause the sun doesn't shine and the moon it won't glow
D7 G
And these lonely nights all pass too slow
C
Sweet memories I still recall
D7 G
But I miss you so so let the teardrops fall
