IT’S NOT THE FALL THAT HURTS

(Eric Stone/Kenny Royster)


D                                                                          G                                 D
Nothing could be sweeter than my Senorita and me dancing under the moonlight 

                                                                                 G                        A
I’d spin her around in her white cotton gown and Id get lost in her dark eyes

        Bm              A                     G                               A
But lately when she looks at me its not the same as it was

G          A                D        G                A                            D

I fell hard, when it all fell apart, the night she fell out of love

 

 

CHORUS:

G                             A                     D                   G                             A            D      

It’s not the fall that hurts, it’s the sudden stop somehow she stopped missing me

        G         A        D           Bm                G                               A

Just yesterday our love was hot now her kisses are cold as can be

G                             A                 Bm/A/G                                    A          D

It’s not the fall that hurts its the sudden stop now she’s stopped loving me

 

 

D                                                                          G                                 D
That hot night of loving in that tropical oven suddenly felt like a deep freeze

                                                                                 G                        A
The wind blew colder so I thought I’d hold her to keep her warm from the cool breeze

        Bm              A                     G                               A

Then she smiled and for a while I thought we were back together

G          A                D        G                A                            D

But a woman’s mind when so inclined can change just like the weather
 

 

 

CHORUS:

G                             A                     D                   G                             A            D      

It’s not the fall that hurts, it’s the sudden stop somehow she stopped missing me

        G         A        D           Bm                G                               A

Just yesterday our love was hot now her kisses are cold as can be

G                             A                 Bm/A/G                                    A          D

It’s not the fall that hurts its the sudden stop now she’s stopped loving me

 

 

REPEAT CHORUS

G                             A                 Bm/A/G                                    A          D/A/D

It’s not the fall that hurts it’s the sudden stop now she’s stopped loving me
