A#                                  A# 
Hear the lonesome whipperwill, he sounds too blue to fly 
     D#(bar)            A#                  F               A# 
The midnight train is whining low, I'm so lonesome I could cry 
 
   A#                              A# 
I never seen a night so long when times goes crawling by 
    D#(bar)            A#             F                  A# 
The moon just went behind a cloud to hide it's face and cry 
 
     CHORUS 
               G(bar)                           Cm 
Well maybe the night is cold but together they fade 
                      F              
Like the shadow that ran up to the hills 
           A# 
Trying to fix her wings 
                       G(bar)                 Cm 
There's a saint and a sinner, and forever the missing day 
                       F 
Where the winners and losers feel the same 
                  A# 
Who knows what tomorrow brings 
 
         A#                         A# 
Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves begin to die 
     D#(bar)              A#                   F                A# 
That means he's lost the will to live, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry 
 
      A#                       A# 
The silence of a falling star lights a purple sky 
D#(bar)        A#                   F                A# 
And I wonder where you are, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry 
 
TO CHORUS than final verse: 
 
A#                                  A# 
Hear the lonesome whipperwill, he sounds too blue to fly 
     D#(bar)            A#                  F               A# 
The midnight train is whining low, I'm so lonesome I could cry 
        F                A# 
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry 
        F                A# 
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
