Verse 1:
About as low as I felt in a long time
And I know that I did a-wrong at the wrong time
It's plain to see, she's down on me
And I know she'll feel that way for a long time

1: repeat last bar of intro

Verse 2:
I was high on top but I didn't know it (tear drop city)
Tell me, why did I have to go and blow it (tear drop city)
I used my lines too many times
And now I've got a badly hurt heart to show it (tear drop city)
Bridge:
Took me too long to discover
How much I really love her
How'd I ever end up in this bag
[1: Eb 2: (Gb)] [N.C.]
What a drag
Verse 3:
There she goes looking for greener clover (tear drop city)
No one knows what it's like 'til it's over (tear drop city)
Without a doubt, I just found out
And I suppose I never did get to know her (tear drop city)
Db [N.C.]
Tear drop city, tear drop city

repeat bridge

Coda [repeat to fade]:
About as low as I felt in a long time (tear drop city)
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
