INTRO: C F C G7 C
CHORUS:
[C]A little bitty tear let me [G7]down,
spoiled my act as a [C]clown.
I had it made up not to make a [F]frown,
oh, but a [C]little bitty [G7]tear let me [C]down.
[C]When you said you were leaving to[G7]morrow,
that today was our last [C]day,
I said there'd be no [F]sorrow,
that I'd [C]laugh when [G7]you walked a[C]way.
CHORUS:
[C]But a little bitty tear let me [G7]down,
spoiled my act as a [C]clown.
I had it made up not to make a [F]frown,
oh, but a [C]little bitty [G7]tear let me [C]down.
[C] [F] [C] [G7] [C]
[C]I said I'd laugh when you left [G7]me,
pull a funny as you went out the [C]door..
that I'd have another one [F]waitin',
I'd [C]wave good..[G7]bye as you [C]go..But..
CHORUS:
[C]A little bitty tear let me [G7]down,
spoiled my act as a [C]clown.
I had it made up not to make a [F]frown,
oh, but a [C]little bitty [G7]tear let me [C]down.
[C] [F] [C] [G7] [C]
[C]Everything went like I [G7]planned it,
and I really put on quite a [C]show.
In my heart I felt I could [F]stand it,
Til you [C]walked with your [G7]grip through the [C]door.
CHORUS:
[C]Then, a little bitty tear let me [G7]down,
spoiled my act as a [C]clown.
I had it made up not to make a [F]frown,
oh, but a [C]little bitty [G7]tear let me [C]down.
