Early in the mornin', before the crack of dawn.

I'm sitting here thinking, oh, why was I born?

You told me you loved me, but honey, you lied.

The night seems like a million years..
Fm                            C
waitin' till the break of day appears.
D
All night long weeping like a willow,
Dm7
tossing and turning on my tear—stained pillow,

guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.

Life ain't worth living, can't go on..

Since you've been gone...(since you've been gone.)
