[Verse 1]
You made me cry
When you said goodbye

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

[Verse 2]
You broke my heart
When you said we'd part

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
Boogie, baby!

[Instrumental Break]
(Ain't that a shame)
(Ain't that a shame)
(Look out)

[Verse 3]
Farewell, goodbye
Although I'll cry

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
Boogie, baby!

[Instrumental Break]
(Ain't that a shame)
(Ain't that a shame)
(Look out)

[Verse 1]
You made me cry
When you said goodbye

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

John Lennon

As the founding member of The Beatles, John Winston Lennon (1940-1980) is one of the most recognizable cultural icons of the 20th Century. He is also the other half of the Lennon-McCartney songwriting partnership, alongside fellow Beatle, Paul McCartney.

As a solo artist and through his relationship and collaboration with avant-garde artist Yoko Ono, he became just as recognizable for his political activism.

Lennon was murdered by Mark David Chapman on December 8, 1980, outside of his New York apartment, The Dakota. Since then, his music and message remain timeless.
