Hallelujah, especially the Jeff Buckley version. I don't care if it was in Shrek, this is devastating:
Maybe there's a God above/ But all I've ever learned from love/ Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya/ And it's not a cry that you hear at night/ It's not somebody who's seen the light/ It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
The one time I remember a song really getting to me, and I was young, was "The Living Years."
I had no idea who sang that (turns out it's Mike and the Mechanics), just remember it getting lots of radio play in the early 90's and one time it just fucking got me.
This is one of those songs you'll remember if you hear it.

Can't remember the last time a song itself made me teary...usually has to be with a movie (especially one where Morgan Freeman is President).
Ave Maria (for the catholic in me.) Ghost, Indigo Girls.
and like a million other things.

jeff buckley's version of hallelujah. and if i'm already sad, u2's one will do the trick.
all of the above mentioned songs, plus sarah mclachlins song Angel and Pearl Jam´s Just Breathe. Those really do it to me.
I Think It's Gonna Rain Today, by Bette Midler. It reminds me of Beaches
