[D] [G]
[C] [G]
Are [C] you lonesome [Em] tonight?
[Am] Do you miss me tonight?
[C] Are you sorry we drifted [F] apart?
[G] Does your memory stray to a brighter someday
When I kissed you and called you [C] sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor [F] seem empty and bare?
[D] Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture [G] me there?
[C] Is your heart [Em] filled with pain?
[D] Shall I come back again?
[Dm] Tell me dear, [G] are you lonesome [C] tonight?
[G]
[C] [Em] I wonder if [A] you're lonesome tonight.
You know someone said that [C] the world's a stage and each must play a part.
Fate had me [F] playing in love with you as my sweetheart.
Act one was where we met.
[G] I loved you at first glance.
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue.
Then came act two.
You seemed to change.
You acted [C] strange and why I've never known.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me.
[F] And I had no cause to doubt you.
[D] But I'd rather go on hearing your lies than to go on living [G] without you.
[C] Now the stage is [Em] bare and I'm standing [D] there with emptiness all around.
And [G] if he won't come back to me, [C] then I can bring the curtain down.
[G]
[C] Is your heart [Em] filled with pain?
[D] Shall I come back?
Tell me [Dm] dear, [G] are you lonesome tonight?
[C]
