Gone and left me in sorrow to mourn

My eyes like some fountain with

tears overflowed
Am                                            Em A Em   (Indian Sitar-solo)
Eyes like some fountain with tears overflowed

My life I'll venture on
G      A
watery main

my false love will weep
Am                                         Em A Em
False love will weep for me after I'm gone

After I'm gone, After I'm gone, After I'm gone...
