I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry is a 1944 torch song and jazz standard written by Jule Styne (music) and Sammy Cahn (lyrics). It was introduced by film star Jane Withers in the stage show Glad To See You, which closed in Boston and never reached Broadway. The melancholy torch ballad about heartbreak and trying to keep up appearances has become a jazz and pop standard. Notable versions include Kitty Kallen with Harry James (1945), Frank Sinatra with Axel Stordahl (1946) and on his 1958 album Sings for Only the Lonely, Linda Ronstadt on What's New (1983), and Rosemary Clooney with the Count Basie Orchestra on At Long Last (1998).
