Tears So Strong

D                            D                       D
Well some midnights when the lightning strikes and it wakes me
         D                   D                   A
I hear a lover's cry comin' from the sky and it takes me
             D                    D
To where the cobras slide and the gators crawl
 G*
They all run from tears so strong
      D                    A                        D
Keeps pouring down burnin' up the ground as they're fallin'


[Verse]
 D                       D                         D
Daddy told me once, you better listen, son, start believin'
           D                         D                      A
You might think you're tough but it ain't enough when she's leavin'
    D                         D
Someday you're gonna cry them tears so strong
      G*
Gonna wash them tattoos off your arm
      D                       A                      D
Gonna break you down, it's a lonely sound as they're fallin'


[Chorus]
 D                          A
Tears so strong, what went wrong
       D                          G                     D
What's done is done, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin'
 D                          A
Tears so strong, can't hold on
          D                            G                    D
Until the kingdom comes, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin'


[Post-Chorus]
                        D* C*
I'll never see her again
                    D* C*
or breathe her fire
                   D* C*
Only she could dry
               A   D
these tears of mine

[Verse]
       D                       D                     D
Well I gotta make sense of the time that's left in a hurry
          D               D                       A
I'm going blind cause of all this cryin' and it's blurry
              D                        D
Well,there's nothing worse than these tears so strong
       G*
Even a rusty knife through a voodoo doll
       D                   A                         D
Keeps pouring down burnin' up the ground as they're fallin'


[Chorus]
 D                          A
Tears so strong, what went wrong
        D                        G                    D
What's done is done, I'm feelin' every one as they're fallin'
 D                          A
Tears so strong, can't hold on
          D                           G                    D
Until the kingdom comes, I'm countin' every one as they're fallin'


[Post-Chorus]
                        D* C*
I'll never see her again
                    D* C*
or breathe her fire
                   D* C*
Only she could dry
               A  D
these tears of mine
