Lonely Street
recorded by Patsy Cline (1962)

One of Patsy's 'best' love songs!
Key D, capo 1st fret to play with the youtube video
D
I'm looking for that lonely street
G D
I've got a sad sad tale to tell
G D
I need a place to go and weep
A7 G D
Where's this place called lonely stree-ee-ee-eet
A place where there's just loneliness
G D
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
G D
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
A7 G D
Where's this place called lonely stree-ee-ee-eet
G
Perhaps upon th-at lonely street
D
There's someone such as I
G
Who came to bury broken dreams
D A7
And watch an old lo-ve die
D
If I could find that lonely street
G D
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
G D
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
A7 G D
Where's this place called lonely stree-ee-ee-eet
A7 G D
Where's this place called lonely stree-ee-ee-eet
Instrumental (basically play 'first' 3 lines of above verse,
then pick up singing on 'last' verse *as below* to end song.)
A7 G D
Where's this place called lonely stree-ee-ee-eet
