YOU MADE THIS LOVE A TEARDROP (Nanci Griffith)

[Each chord is half a measure, except two chords joined by a hyphen are
 half a measure _total_.]

[intro]

                                             
What have you got to say for yourself, now baby
  -                                     
Now that I am leaving you, what have you got to lose
                                                            
The truth you tried to keep from me, well it nearly drove me crazy
 -                                        - /
I have grown weary of sleepless nights with you
                                     
Is that a broken heart in the corner of your eye
                         /  
   Something to remind me

                                        
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
             -                                  
There are those who can't love right, I just can't love wrong
              -                                 
When you're lonely in the night, how I hope you will recall
       -                               /  
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall

Though I will not forgive you for betraying the trust between us
Though I will always care for you, I've loved you half my life
And when I give my heart again, I know that I'll remember
Love is but a fragile flame, and trust just fuels the fire
When I think of all the years your love has taken from me
I can't believe I'm leaving you

          -                / - /
[instrumental]
          -                / - /
[instrumental]

                                        
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
            -                                  
There are those who can't love right, I just can't love wrong
             -                                 
When you're lonely in the night, how I hope you will recall
     -                           
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
      -                               /  
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall

You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
There are those who can't love right, I just can't love wrong
When you're lonely in the night, how I hope you will recall
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
You made this love a teardrop waiting to fall
[repeat and fade]
