E   A   E   A   D   G 

verse 1 
       E 
It was three in the morning when she took me apart 
     A 
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart 
     E 
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray 
    A 
The scars ain't never going to mend in a hurry 
D 
Just when I thought I could learn to forget her 
G 
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter 
Chorus B C Oh, oh, oh love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter B C Oh, oh, oh love love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Break Accordian E A E A verse 2 E Well my head was beating like a song by the Clash A It was writing cheques that my body couldn't cash E Got to my feet, I was reeling and dizzy A I went for the 'phone but the line was busy D Just when I thought that things would get better G Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Chorus B C Oh, oh, oh love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter B C Oh, oh, oh love love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

Chorus B C Oh, oh, oh love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter B C Oh, oh, oh love love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter B C Oh, oh, oh love love love D Cry, cry if it makes you feel better G Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
