Start Jamming...
[Ab] Are you lonesome tonight?
Do [G] you miss me [Ab] tonight?
Are [G] you [Abm] sorry we [F] drifted?
[Bbm]
[Ebm] Is [G] the [Ebm] [Bbm] memory still in [Eb] your heart?
Are [Cm] you lonesome tonight?
Do [Ab] you miss me tonight?
[Fm] Are you sorry [Ebm] we [F] drifted
[Bb] apart?
[F] [Bbm]
Does your memory [Eb]
stray
to a bright [G] summer day
when [Bbm] I kissed [Cm] you and [Eb] called you [Ab] sweetheart?
[Cm] Do [Ebm] the chairs in your [Fm] parlor
[Db] seem empty and bare?
[F] Do you gaze at your [Gm] doorstep
and [Eb] picture me there?
Is [Ab] your heart filled with pain?
Should I [Bb] come back again?
Tell me [Bbm] dear, [Eb] are you [Bbm]
[Db] lonesome [Ab] tonight?
[Eb] [Ab]
You know someone said the world's a stage
and each must play a part.
[F] Fate had me play a lover with you as [Bbm] my sweetheart.
Act One was where we met.
I loved you at [Eb] first glance.
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue.
Then came Act Two
and you seemed to change.
You acted [Db] strange.
[G] Why, I've never known.
[Ab] Then came the day you went away and left me all alone.
[Ebm] If you lied when you said you loved me,
I had no [Fm] cause to doubt you.
For I'd rather go on hearing your lies
than go on living [Db] without you.
The stage is bare [Fm] and I'm standing there
in the pot [Bb] of a broken clown.
[Gm] And if you won't come [Eb] back to me,
[D] then they can [Bb] bring the curtain [Cm] down.
Is your [Ab] heart filled with pain?
Should I [Bb] come [Fm] back [Bb] again?
Tell me [Bbm] dear, [Eb] are you [Db] lonesome [Cm] tonight?
[Dbm] Are you lonesome?
[Ab]
