Sophronie- Jimmy Martin
Played in Key of B: [B E F#]
Guitar and Banjo Capo IV
Chorus:
G C
Love ‘em and leave ‘em, kiss ‘em and grieve ‘em,
D G
That used to be my motto so high;
G C
Till my Sophronie left me so lonely,
D G
Now there’s teardrops in my eyes.
Verse 1
G C
My Sophronie’s from Kentucky, she’s found another man,
D G
I can’t even kiss her, can’t even hold her hand;
C
The moon we used to love beneath is still up in the sky,
D G
But now I’m just a hotshot with a teardrop in my eye.
Chorus:
G C
Love ‘em and leave ‘em, kiss ‘em and grieve ‘em,
D G
That used to be my motto so high;
G C
Till my Sophronie left me so lonely,
D G
Now there’s teardrops in my eyes.

Verse 2
G C
Till Gabriel blows his bugle, I’ll be loving that sweet girl,
D G
She means more to me than the whole wide world;
C
I used to be a killer with the women – me, oh my!
D G
But now I’m just a hot shot with a teardrop in my eye.
Chorus:
G C
Love ‘em and leave ‘em, kiss ‘em and grieve ‘em,
D G
That used to be my motto so high;
G C
Till my Sophronie left me so lonely,
D G
Now there’s teardrops in my eyes.
Verse 3:
G C
I used to slay the pretty girls from Maine to Alabam,
D G
Until I met Sophronie and then she let me down;
C
I’ve seen so many pretty eyes a-filled with bitter tears,
D G
Find ‘em, forget ‘em, but now I have my fears.
Chorus:
G C
Love ‘em and leave ‘em, kiss ‘em and grieve ‘em,
D G
That used to be my motto so high;
G C
Till my Sophronie left me so lonely,
D G
Now there’s teardrops in my eyes.
