CEmAm
1. Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?
CC7F
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
G7Dm7
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day,
G7G7C
when I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
GmC7F
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
D7G7
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
CEmD7
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
G7G7C - G7
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
(spoken : )
CEmAm
I wonder if you are lonesome tonight.
You know someone said that the world is a stage,
CC7
and you must play a part.
F
Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart.
G
Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance.
G7G
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue.
G7
Then came act 2, you seemed to change and you acted strange,
CC7
and why I'll never know.
F
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me,
D
and I had no cause to doubt you.
G
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies,
G7C
than go on living without you.
Em
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
DF
with emptiness all around.
G7
And if you won't come back to me,
CG7
then they can bring thecurtain down.
CEmD
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
FG7C
Tell me dear are you lovesome tonight.
