I stood a-watchin’ all night long, I stood a-watchin’ all night long,

I stood a-watchin’ till you went away;

You were a girl of many charms; oh, how I loved you in my [A+]arms.

I never thought that you would ever go ‘cause I loved you so.

Refrain:

Tacit E C# D A
Oh, uh, Susie darlin’, I thought you knew;

You were all the world to me, all my dreams come true.

I stood a-cryin’ all night long, I stood a-cryin’ all night long,

Cryin’ wishin’ you’d come back to me,

Thinking of all the dreams we knew —

Now that you’re gone they won’t come [A+]true.

My heart is empty without you — nothin’ there but misery.

Repeat Refrain:

Now I stand a-watchin’ all night long,

I stand a-watchin’ all night long,

Knowing that life has nothing left for me;

I’ll wait around most patiently, hopin’ you will return to [A+]me.

Till that happy day I will always be watchin’ all night long.

Final Refrain:

Tacit E C# D A
Oh, uh, Susie darlin’. I thought you knew;

You were all the world to me.

All [Bm7-5] my dreams come true.
