V-3 IV-0-2-0

  Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?

  Are you sorry we drifted apart?

  Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day

  When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

  Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?

  Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?

  Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

  Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.

(Talking verses,play the same chords)

I wonder if you are lonesome tonight

You know someone said that the world is a stage

And you must play a part.

Fate had me playing in love twes my sweet heart.

Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance

You read your line so cleverly and never missed a 'q'

Then came act 2, you seemed to change and you acted strange

And why I'll never know.

Honey, you're lying when you said you loved me

And I had no cause to doubt you.

But I'd rather go on hearing your lies

Than go on living without you.

Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there

With emptiness all around

And if you won't come back to me

Then make them bring the curtain down.

(sing again)

  Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

  Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
