An Empty Cup
Written and recorded by Roy Orbison

C   G7     C      F             C
One lonely night  at this drive in
F         C     F                C
And now I know  what a fool I've been

G7
She was to meet me (an empty cup a broken date)
F        C
We had a date (a broken date an empty cup)
  D7
A date at seven I dreamed of Heaven
G7
Now it's way past eight

               C   F            C
She just drove by  with another guy
F         C  F              C   F  C
No wonder I  can't help but cry

G7
To think she never cared ( an empty cup a broken date)  
F             C
Just tears me up (a broken date an empty cup)
    D7
Now all I have to show for love  
G7
Is this empty cup

               C     F          C
Just like this Coke  my love is gone
F            C       F       C
I've hit the bottom  now I'm alone
