(E) JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU, YOU LEFT AND WENT A- (A) WAY,
YOU MADE MY LIFE SO (E) BLUE BOTH NIGHT AND (B7) DAY,
YOU (E) LEFT ME HERE BEHIND, WITH A TROUBLED WORRIED (A) MIND,
SO BROKEN HEARTED (E) TOO, JUST (B7) WHEN I NEEDED (E) YOU.

CHORUS

I CRIED, I CRIED, I (A) PRAYED, LORD, I (E) TRIED, TO FORGET YOU,
AND NEVER CALL YOUR (B7) NAME, WHAT A (E) SHAME, WHAT A SHAME,
YOU'RE THE (A) ONE WHO WAS TO (E) BLAME,
YOU'RE THE (A) ONE WHO WAS UN-(E) TRUE, JUST (B7) WHEN I NEEDED (E) YOU.

YOU SAID, IT'S BEST WE PART, AND NEVER LOVE AGAIN,
AND 'THO IT BROKE MY HEART, I WON'T COMPLAIN,
YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU STILL, AND DEAR I ALWAYS WILL,
ALTHO YOU PROVED UNTRUE, JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU.
