Charm ally out of tears (9)
I believe the answer is:
lachrymal
'of tears' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'charm ally out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'charm'+'ally'='charmally'
'charmally' anagrammed gives 'LACHRYMAL'.
(Other definitions for lachrymal that I've seen before include "Charm ally with tears" , "Bone" , "Weeping, tearful" , "Of tears or weeping" .)
