Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]It[Ab][Cdim][Ab][Bbaug][Ab][G]
brings big [D]tears[G]
Into my [C]eyes
When I [C#dim]began
When I began to realize
[G]That I've cried so [B]much
[Em]Oh, since you've been gone
[C#dim][Em][A]
I guess I'll drown in
Drown [D]in my own tears
[G]I've been cry[D]ing[A][G]
Just [C]like a child
These tears of mine
These [C#dim]tears are running wild
And if you [G]don't [B]think
If you don't think [Em]that you'll
be home soon
[Asus4]Baby, I'm going to drown, oh[A] yeah,[D]
in my [G]own [C]tears
[G][Baug]

[Verse 2]
[C]
Here without you (you)
I get [C#dim]so lonely and I sure get
blue (blue), yes, I do
[G]It seems to keep rai[C]nin'
[D](rainin')
Rainin', and rain[G]ing more
and more (more [C]and [G]more)
Oh, [C]here without you, baby,
I sure [C#dim]get lonely and I get so blue,
And every time [A]I look around,
it's rainin'
More, and more, [Dsus4]and more,
and more, and more
[D]Oh,[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]why can't you?
[D](you) Why can't you
Why can't you come [G]on home? (You come
[C]on [C#dim]home)[A][G][C]
Because I don't wanna be,
I don't want [C#dim]to be here all alone
Listen, if you don't [G]think
(If you don't)
If you don't think [C]that you're coming home soon
(You don't think)
Like this evening,
I believe I'm [G]gonna drown
[C](drown) this morning
[G]I tell you that I'm gonna
[C](drown) gonna drown this evening
[G]And oh! (drown) It's sure gonna
get bad [C]in the midnight hour
[G]Don't let him let me, (drown) Don't
let him let me
[C]Don't let him let me, Don't
let him let [G]me
Drown (goin' down), in my
own [C]tears
I don't [G]wanna drown
(drown) in my [C]own tears
Oh, I'm gonna [A]drown, [Asus4]yeah, in [A]my[D]
Oh, in my own tears, tears, [C#dim]my tears, tears
Oh, don't let him do it, don't let
him do it
I don't wanna drown in my own tears
