Glenn Yarbrough - Lonesome chords
Start Jamming...
Did you ever say [E] I'm lonesome and stop and [F#] wonder really what lonesome [E] is?
[F#] Lonesome [E] is a little boy
[F#] Standing [E] in a crowd [F#] a [E] telephone ringing
[F#] In an [E] empty [B] house
Lonesome [C#] is an autumn leaf [B] that first falls [C#] from its tree
[F#] Lonesome is me
[E]
[F#] Lonesome
[B] Is a footstep
[F#] without a [E] place to go
[F#] The [E] summer's last robin in [F#] winter's [E] first snow
[B] Lonesome [C#] is a little dog
[B] Lost out [C#] in the street
[F#] Lonesome is me
[B] Lonesome [C#] is an empty bottle [B] a half-filled [C#] glass of wine
[B] The sound [C#] the clock makes [B] when all you [C#] have is time
[F#] Lonesome [E] is a heart that breaks
[F#] When love has [E] turned to hate
[F#] the dying [E]
son
[F#] At the close [E] of day
[B] Lonesome [C#] is a jail of tears
[B] That won't set me [C#]
free
[F#] Some is me
[E]
Lonesome [F#] is me
[E]
