When Susannah cries
She cries a rainstorm
She cries a river
She cries a hole in the ground
She cries for love
She cries a sad song
She cries a shiver
Sometimes she cries for me too
2. Verse (Chords same as in 1st one except last 2 lines)
Now I slip the night around her
And I hope she'll be okay
I just pray someone will find her
And guide her along her way
'Cause I'm leaving on the one am
By soon I'm out of sight
DO RE
But she'll always be my baby
DO REsus4 RE SOL
Though I'm leaving tonight

3. Verse (Chords as in 1st one except the end)
Every night I hear her
Talking in her sleep
She says you know I'll always be there
And I feel like such a creep
Please take back the love she gave to me
And in time her grief may pass
DO RE
Just tell her that I loved her
DO REsus4 RE
Now it's all
SOL SIb DO
she has
SIb DO FA SOL
When Susannah cries
