[G]
The streets are dark and empty [C] as you walk them [G] all alone
You think about your love [A] affair and wonder [D] what went wrong
[G] You go to bed each night [C] afraid you'll never [Em] see the dawn
[C] Afraid of [G] each tomorrow [D] with its heartless [G] cold unknown
And that's [C] what it's like [G] to be lonesome
With a heart of [D] broken love is [G] taught to cry
And [C] that's what it's like [G] to be lonesome
I know [D] cause I'm a mighty [G] lonesome guy
You search to find a tavern [C] where the [G] music's playing loud
You try to drown your heartaches [A] in the laughter [D] of
[G] But the happy couples make you [C] think of things that [G] might have been
[C] And you have to [G] fight the teardrops [D] till you're by [G] yourself again
And that's [C] what it's like [G] to be lonesome
With a heart of [D] broken love is [G] taught to cry
And that's [C] what it's like [G] to be lonesome
I [G] know cause [D] I'm a mighty [G] lonesome guy
