A               D            A 
I sat in with a band down in Dallas 
E            D            A 
I'd been introduced as a guest 
                           D                  A 
When a little white haired man approached the bandstand 
       D               E7             A 
Said I wonder if you'd play one last request 

 
A                    D          A 
Oh please play me a song I can cry to 
E              D           A 
Sad songs are music to my ears 
A         D           A  
Play me a song I can cry to 
D          E7                     A 
Play me a song that sounds like tears 


Verse 
A                  D            A 
I stood by as the band started playing 
E                  D            A 
And I didn't even try to play along 
                        D                A 
Aw my eyes had followed him back to the corner 
                        D          E 
Where he sat down at a table all alone 

Verse 
A                   D               A      
And a smile slowly came across his teardrops 
  E                  D                A 
And I watched as he slowly bowed his head 
                          D                  A 
Just before he left this world for one much better 
  D                   E               A 
I remember the little lonely man had said 


A                    D         A 
Oh please play me a song I can cry to 
E             D            A 
Sad songs are music to my ears 
A         D           A  
Play me a song I can cry to 
D          E7                     A 
Play me a song that sounds like tears 
D          E7                     A 
Play me a song that sounds like tears
