Tears Go By Lyrics
And An Acoustic Tutorial

On this page youll find the Tears Go By lyrics along with my acoustic tutorial demo.

This was the first song written together by Jagger and Richards, as they were until this time, performing blues covers. The song was first recorded by Marianne Evelyn Faithfull, who was known to have a relationship with Jagger in the early years of The Rolling Stones. The song peaked in the US at #22 back in 1965.

--- Start Of Tears Go By ---

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see ... But not .... for me
I sit and watch ... as tears go by

My riches cant buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound ..of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch ... as tears go by

BREAK

All I hear is the sound ..of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch ... as tears go by

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin things I used to do ... they think are new
I sit and watch ... as tears go by

Hummmm .............
Hummmm .............
Hummmm .............
I sit and watch ... as tears go by
I sit and watch ... as tears go by
