Blue Eyes Cryin’ in the Rain
Fred Rose, 1946· Songs Well-Known in America · p.37
E (Bass run A A# B)
In the twilight glow I see her
B E
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
E (Bass run A A# B)
When we kissed good-bye and parted
B E (Bass run E F F# G# A)
I knew we'd never meet again
Chorus:
A (Bass run A G# F# E)
Love is like a dying ember
E B7 (Bass run B A G# F#)
Only memories remain
E
And through the ages I'll remember
B7 E
Blue eyes crying in the rain
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
A (Bass run A G# F# E)
Someday when we meet up yonder
E B7 (Bass run B A G# F#)
We'll stroll hand in hand again
E
In the land that knows no parting
B7 E
Blue eyes crying in the rain.
B7 A A/G# A/F# E Esus4 E
Blue eyes crying in the rain.
