I Heard You Crying in Your Sleep

by Hank Williams

G          C                  G

I know you tried your best to love me

    C                                  G

You smiled when your heart told you to weep

    C                              G

You tried to pretend that you were happy

         D7                               G

But last night I heard you crying in your sleep

             C                  G

You gave the best years of your life dear

    C                              G

And each precious vow you tried to keep

  C                           G

I love you so much I want you happy

         D7                               G

But last night I heard you crying in your sleep

              C               G

Your heart is yearning for an old love

     C                          G

With new love its useless to compete

   C                          G

It hurts me to know you are unhappy

         D7                               G

But last night I heard you crying in your sleep

              C               G

You know that you are free to go dear

    C                        G

And don't mind if I start to weep

  C                         G

I know I can never make you happy

           D7                               G

Cause last night I heard you crying in your sleep
