Version 1
            [Intro]
A7  D
[Verse 1]
D                             A7
Many tears ago you said you'd love me
                               D
Oh how happy was this heart of mine
                                     A7
Then a dark cloud came from out of nowhere
                                 D    D7
And the sun went down no more to shine
[Verse 2]
G                            D
Many tears ago I learned too well, love
                              A7
What it means to bear a heavy load
D                                 A7
I found out just what is meant by sorrow
                            D
Many tears ago along life's road
[Verse 3]
                         A7
Many tears ago I built a castle
                              D
Built it very strong and very tall
                                   A7
Though I thought it had a firm foundation
                        D   D7
Many tears ago I saw it fall
[Verse 4]
G                                   D
Many times I've wished that I would die, love
                               A7
Better to be dead than feel so low
D                        A7
All I ever lived or ever hoped for
                         D
Left me many many tears ago
[Intrumental Break]
G   D       A7   D   A7       D
[Verse 5]
D                            A7
Many tears ago you called me darlin'
                               D
In my dreams I hear you say it now
                             A7
I can almost feel your arms around me
                                    D  D7
Arms that never meant to keep their vow
[Verse 6]
G                           D
Many tears ago 'twas in the springtime
                                A7
When you said goodbye and went away
D                               A7
Oh how well this aching heart remembers
                      D
Many many tears ago today
