Cry Me A River:Julie London
9 on the Pop charts in 1955.
One of the best singers AND song,
ever,in my humble opinion.
(Slow blues)
Verse 1
[A7] [Am7]
Now you say you're lonely,
[Dm7] [G7] [C]
You cry the whole night through,

Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river,
[Dm7] [E7] [Am] [E] [E7]
I cried a river over you.

CHORUS
[Am7] [E7] [Dm7] [E7]
You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head,
[E] [Am] [Dm7] [E7]
while you never shed a tear.
