Nobody cares about me
Ain't even got a friend
Baby's gone and left me
When will my troubles end?
[Chorus]
F7
Black night has fallen
C7
Oh how I hate to be alone
G7 F N.C.
Well I keep crying for my baby
C7 F7 C7 G7
But now another day is gone
[Verse 2]

Got no one to talk with
To tell my troubles to
Don't even know I'm living
Since I lost you
[Chorus]

Black night has fallen

Well I keep crying for my baby
