Before the Next Teardrop Falls
               Freddy Fender

      1                17           4                 1
If he brings you happi-ness, Then I wish you both the best
          4              57              1      57
It's your happiness that matters most of all
          1                17            4              1
But if he ever breaks your heart, If the teardrops ever start
4       1                57            1       4    1
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls


CHORUS:
17      4         57       1
I'll be there Any-time you need me by your side
   27             57                             1               17
To dry away every teardrop that you cried, If he ever leaves you blue
        4             1   4       1                57            1 
Just re-member I love you I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls




        1                17          4             1
Tho' it hurts to let you go Darling, I want you to know
          4               57              1      57
That I'll stand by you If ever you should call
         1           17           4               1
And if I should ever hear That he made you shed a tear
4       1                57            1       4    1
I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls

CHORUS


4       1                57            1       4    1   57   1
I'll be there Before the next teardrop falls
