Intro:  Cmaj7 – F - (2x)

Cmaj7          F             Cmaj7  F
 Don't let the sun catch you crying
Cmaj7            F                 G    G7
 The night's the time for all your tears
Am                 Em
 Your heart may be broken tonight
Am                   Em
 But tomorrow in the morning light
F              G             Cmaj7  F  Cmaj7  F
 Don't let the sun catch you crying

Cmaj7          F          Cmaj7  F
 The nighttime shadows disappear
Cmaj7          F              G   G7
 And with them go all of your tears
        Am                 Em
For the morning will bring joy
    Am             Em
For every girl and boy
   F             G             Cmaj7  F  Cmaj7  F
So don't let the sun catch you crying

G          
 We know that crying's
      Am
Not a bad thing
F
 But stop your crying
         G
When the birds sing

Cmaj7      F          Cmaj7 F
 It may be hard to discover
Cmaj7             F        G      G7
 That you've been left for another
          Am                   Em
But don't forget that love's a game
           Am          Em
And it can always come again
   F             G             Cmaj7  F
Oh don't let the sun catch you crying
F              G             Cmaj7
 Don't let the sun catch you crying
   F
Oh no
        Cmaj7
Oh, oh, oh
