Lonesome Tears in My Eyes
Authors: J. Burnette, D. Burnette, Burlison, Mortimer; Lead vocal: John Lennon

Oh baby baby baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine
Oh baby baby baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine

I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
How must I forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes?

You've broken my heart
Gonna do it again
And I can't forget
The spell that I'm in
Can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes

You've broken my heart
Gonna do it again
I can't forget
The spell that I'm in
I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes

Oh baby baby baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
It'll suit you just fine
Oh baby baby baby
Blues and sorrow
I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine

I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes
