DAVID LEE GINGRAS #6440819. Published by DAVID LEE GINGRAS (A0.794117). Crying is a song written by Roy Orbison and Joe Melson for Orbison's third studio album of the same name (1962). Released in 1961, it was a number 2 hit in the US for Orbison and was covered in 1980 by Don McLean, whose version went to number 1 in the UK. This contemporary version features a root-based chord blocking that we have used in a number of our arrangements. We also added what we think are some pretty cool left-hand rhythm patterns that we hope you like!
