Verse:

Now won't you list -en dear -ie while I say, How could you tell me that you're goin' a -way?
Don't say that we must part, Don't break my ach -ing heart;
You know I've loved you tru -ly man -y years, Loved you night and day;
How can you leave me, can't you see my tears? List -en while I say:

 

Chorus:

Af -Ter You've Gone, and left me cry -ing, Af -Ter You've Gone, There's no de -ny -ing;
You'll feel blue, You'll feel sad, You'll miss the dear -est pal you've ev -er had.
There'll come a time, Now don't for -get it, There'll come a time, when you'll re -gret it;
Some day when you grow lone -ly, your heart will break like mine and You'll want me on -ly,
Af -Ter You've Gone, Af -Ter You've Gone a -way.
