Gene Autry - Tears On My Pillow

      Tears On My Pillow       
Written by Gene Autry and Fred Rose
Released in 1941

A wonderful song co-written and sang by the
GREAT silver Screen cowboy singer/movie star,
Gene Autry!

Capo almost any usual fret, or not, or transpose
to suit your own vocal range, it'll still sound good
when you play/sing it.

D                       E7
Tears on my pillow each morning
  A7                     D
I cry when I dream about you
G                         D                Bm
When I should be sleeping I just lay there weeping
E7                          A7
Wondering if you're weeping too

D                     E7
I'm trying so hard to forget you
    A7                    Bm F# D7
But that's not so easy to do
     G                       D  Bm
With tears on my pillow each morning
G               A7        D
Tears that I've shed over you

D                     E7
We were so happy when love lingered on
A7                        D
Back in the sweet used to be
                  E7
Now I'm so lonely because you are gone
                A7
Leaving a sad memory
 
D                       E7
Tears on my pillow each morning
  A7                     D
I cry when I dream about you
G                         D                Bm
When I should be sleeping I just lay there weeping
E7                          A7
Wondering if you're weeping too
 
D                     E7
I'm trying so hard to forget you
    A7                    Bm F# D7
But that's not so easy to do
     G                       D  Bm
With tears on my pillow each morning
G               A7        D
Tears that I've shed over you
