When (Eb)Ju dy left with John ny at my (Bb7)par ty,
and (Eb)came back wear ing his ring,
(Eb)I sat down and cried my (E)eyes out, now (A)that was a fool ish (Bb)thing.
(Bb)’Cause now it’s (Eb)Ju dy’s turn to cry, Ju dy’s turn to cry, Ju dy’s turn to (Cm)cry,
’cause (Ab)John ny’s come (Bb)back
to me.
It (Eb)hurt me so to see them dance to (Bb7)geth er,
I (Eb)felt like mak ing a scene.
(Eb)Then my tears just fell like (E)rain drops, ’cause (A)Ju dy’s smile was so (Bb)mean.
(Bb)But now it’s (Eb)Ju dy’s turn to cry, Ju dy’s turn to cry, Ju dy’s turn to (Cm)cry,
’cause (Ab)John ny’s come (Bb)back
to me.
