I Couldn't Keep From Crying
by Marty Robbins
C
I saw you walking by his side
F
Heard you whisper all those lies
C G7
And I couldn't keep from crying
C
You sang him love songs tenderly
F
Just the way you sang to me
C G7 C
And I couldn’t keep from crying
F
Saw you capture all his charm
C
As you nestled in his arms
F
With his pretty words and ways
C G7
In your heart he took my place
C
I stood and watched him steal a kiss
F
From two lips I know I'll miss
C G7 C
And I couldn't keep from crying
I saw you walking by his side
F
Heard you whisper all those lies
C G7
And I couldn't keep from crying
C
You sang him love songs tenderly
F
Just the way you sang to me
C G7 C
And I couldn’t keep from crying
F
Saw you capture all his charm
C
As you nestled in his arms
F
With his pretty words and ways
C G7
In your heart he took my place
C
I stood and watched him steal a kiss
F
From two lips I know I'll miss
C G7 C
And I couldn't keep from crying
