Lyrics
Verse 1 ( play V.C.P.)
Picking up the pieces up off the floor
How did I know there was gonna be a war
Words of sorrow and words of spite
Ringing in my head right through the night
Chorus (C.C.P.)
Don't you know its a cryin shame
Well you got yourself to blame
Don't you know its a cryin shame
oohhhhhh oohhh!!
Verse 2 (V.C.P.)
Woke up this morning and its raining again
Stop and wondered if its somethin I said
Words of sorrow and words of spite
Ringing in my head right through the night
Repeat Chorus (C.C.P.)
Bridge (B.C.P.)
cry cry cry cryin shame
cry cry cry cryin shame
Solo - play solo over following progressions using saxophone!

Verse 3 (V.C.P)
I was up all night with a conscience fight
Just couldn't sleep so I put on the light
Sheets so wet when I was out in sweat
Mommas gotta cure but it ain't in you
Repeat Chorus
- a couple of times using first section of chord
progression before ending chorus and smoothly sliding into the outro
PLAY TOO ..
