It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'.
Johnny Tillotson. Top of the charts in '62.

#1.
G                          G7
I cry myself to sleep each night,
C
Wishing I could hold you tight.
     G                                D
Life seems so empty since you went a..way.
    G                         G7
The pillow where you lay your head,
    C
Now holds my lonely tears instead,
       D                                     G
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

CHORUS:
   D                               C
It keeps right on a-hurtin', every minute of the day.
      D                          G
Every hour you're away I feel so lone..lonely.
                                            C
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on,
       D                                     G
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

#2.
G                           G7
They say a man should never cry,
    C
But when I see you passin' by,
   G                                     D
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears.
    G                         G7
You broke my heart and set me free,
    C
But you forgot your memory,
       D                                     G
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

CHORUS:

REPEAT #2.

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
