[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ [C] _
_ [Bbm] Lonely [C] grief is [Db]
hounding [Ebm] me _ _ Like [Bbm]
a lonely shadow _ _ _ [Db] hounding _ me
_ _ _ [C] It's always there just [F] out of [Fm] sight _ [Eb] Like _ [Em] a frightening [Db] dream _ on [Eb] a lightning _ [F] night
_ _ _ [C]
Lonely wind _ cries [Db] out my _ name [Ebm] _ Sad _ [Bb] as haunted [Ab] music _ _ in [A] the [F]
rain
_ _ _ _ [C] It's born of [Gm] grief and [F] born of [Fm] woe _ [Eb] _ _ But [G] I hear it call [Db] _ and [C] I've got to [F] go
_ _ _ [Db] _ [Bbm] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bbm] _ _
Where [Fm] _ [C] can I [Bbm] be headed for?
The blues crawled in my door [C] _ To lick my [Cm] heart once [Eb] more
_ _ _ [Bbm] _
Love _ [Ebm] _ lives in a [Bbm] lonely land [C] _ Where there's [Bbm] no helping hand [Ebm] _ to _ [Bbm] _
understand
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
Why _ _ [Ab] does it bring this ache to [Db] me?
_ _ _ [Ebm] _
Why?
_ [Bbm] _ [Ab] It [Db] don't matter why
_ _ _ _ [G] _
I _ [C] only know [Fm] misery _ _ [E] _ _ [F] _ [Ebm] Has to _ [D] be _ _ [C] part of [F] me
[Ebm] _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ _ [Ebm] Never hoped [F] to count on love [Ebm] _ To [F] be a [Bbm]
partner [F] of _ [C] that heaven [Cm] up above
[F] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
Never _ [Ab] _ _ hoped to [Db] _
_ understand [Ebm] _ Love is [Gb] a barren land, [F] _ a lonely _ land
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ _ [F] A lonely _ land
