D D D Well some midnights when the lightning strikes and it wakes me D D A I hear a lover's cry comin' from the sky and it takes me D D To where the cobras slide and the gators crawl G* They all run from tears so strong D A D Keeps pouring down burnin' up the ground as they're fallin' [Verse] D D D Daddy told me once, you better listen, son, start believin' D D A You might think you're tough but it ain't enough when she's leavin' D D Someday you're gonna cry them tears so strong G* Gonna wash them tattoos off your arm D A D Gonna break you down, it's a lonely sound as they're fallin' [Chorus] D A Tears so strong, what went wrong D G D What's done is done, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin' D A Tears so strong, can't hold on D G D Until the kingdom comes, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin' [Post-Chorus] D* C* I'll never see her again D* C* or breathe her fire D* C* Only she could dry A D these tears of mine [Instrumental] D D D D D A D D G* D A D [Verse] D D D Well I gotta make sense of the time that's left in a hurry D D A I'm going blind cause of all this cryin' and it's blurry D D Well,there's nothing worse than these tears so strong G* Even a rusty knife through a voodoo doll D A D Keeps pouring down burnin' up the ground as they're fallin' [Chorus] D A Tears so strong, what went wrong D G D What's done is done, I'm feelin' every one as they're fallin' D A Tears so strong, can't hold on D G D Until the kingdom comes, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin' [Post-Chorus] D* C* I'll never see her again D* C* or breathe her fire D* C* Only she could dry A D these tears of mine D D D D D D D D Hey hey hey
