Note:  I tabbed this song from a wav file.  This wav file wasn't
In standard tuning so I tuned the guitar to the wav.  I was
Told it was in the key of C so that's the key I tabbed it in.

                 9,999,999 TEARS   Dickey Lee

     C                           Am                    F 
Got nine million, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred 
              G
Ninety-nine tears to go
     F              G                   C    down scale run
And then, I don't know if I'll be over you
C                      Am                C                     Am  
Sun didn't sine this mornin' It's been rainin' the whole day through
F                  G           F             G   
Suddenly without warnin' You found somebody new
         C                  Am    F              G  
That's when the first tear came Fallin' from my eyes
       F                   G            F                  G
I'm beginning to feel the pain Seein' nothin' but cloudy skies

CHORUS:
      C                          Am                    F
Got nine million, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred 
              G
Ninety-nine tears to go
     F              G                   C   Am  F  G
And then, I don't know if I'll be over you
G               C     down scale run
Will I be over you?


        C                     Am            C                  Am 
You're out tonight with your new love  I'm far, far from your mine
F                   G                 F                G
Tryin' to get over you, love  Could take a whole life-time
             C                       Am 
I can't be-lieve you could want any-body else
     F                     G
Oh, no one could take my place
     F                        G  
At least that's what I keep tellin' myself
        F                   G
As the tears fall down my face

Go to chorus, to ending.
