River Of Tears
Recorded by Slim Whitman
Written by Valencia Dawson
 
C                                      F
If it takes a million tears to start a river
       G7                       C
Then tomorrow a new stream will flow
 
It will start from my eyes
           F
A thousand tears for each goodbye
      G7                              C
And a million more because I miss you so
 
      G7                     C
Every tear that goes in this river
     D7                     G7
Will represent a pain in my heart
         C
And each time you make me blue
     F
This stream will change its view
    G7                           C
And flow on just as far as we're apart
 
                        F
If I could recall every promise
    G7                             C
You made through the hours we once knew
                           
The love we sealed in each heart
   F
No tears could tear apart
        G7                               C
And the strongest river never could flow through
 
      G7                       C
But tomorrow the tears will be falling
        D7                        G7
Cause tomorrow will be like yesterday
      C                                F
If it takes a million tears to start a river
       G7                                  C
Then a million tears will soon be on their way
