Behind the Tear by Sonny James 

Behind the Tear  by Sonny James 
 
C          G7             C
Behind the tear there's a hurt behind the hurt a broken heart
            G7                               C
Behind that broken heart there lies a broken dream
           G7              C
Behind the dream there's a fool behind the fool a wasted love
             G7                                C
You broke my heart and I'm the fool behind the tear
 
                Am                F
Look here on my cheek   there's a teardrop
   G7                              C
Oh not much bigger than a grain of sand
G7    C                 Am               F
Don't turn your head so close behind the teardrop
Dm             G7                            C
You'll see the hurt you left inside a lonely man
 
C          G7             C
Behind the tear there's a hurt behind the hurt a broken heart
            G7                               C
Behind that broken heart there lies a broken dream
           G7              C
Behind the dream there's a fool behind the fool a wasted love
             G7                                C
You broke my heart and I'm the fool behind the tear
