performed by Bobby Bare transcribed by bevans@austin.cc.tx.us C F I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile. G C I should be crying but crying's not my style. C F If they ask you how I took it, say I smiled. G C I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile. CHORUS F G This old town can do without me, C For a laughing stock. D G Since she's gone I'm in a funny state of shock. C F I'm so troubled I could walk a thousand miles. G C I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile. C F If you don't see me living like I did. G C It's because the coward in me went and hid. C F So before that same old circle drives me wild. G C I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile. (CHORUS) G C I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile.
