G G7 C
When loneliness lays her hurting hands on me,
G D D7
There's a place I always can go
G G7 C
I'll pour out my soul, to my old piano
G D G
And I let those old ivories cry for me
G G7 C G D D7
Ivory tears, ivory tears, my old piano cries for me,
G G7 C G D D7 G
Ivory tears, ivory tears, dripping from every melo-dy
G G7 C
Some lonely people, they turn to the jukebox,
G G7 D D7
Others turn to whiskey and wine
G G7 C
But, when it's crying time for me, well, I turn to my ole' piano
G D G
And I let those old ivories cry for me
G G7 C G D D7
Ivory tears, ivory tears, my old piano, it's crying, crying
G G7 C G D D7 G
Ivory tears, ivory tears, dripping from every melo-dy
