Dm G7 C G7
[Verse 1]
C Em Am Am
Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?
C C7 F F
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
G G G7 G7
Does your memory stray to a brighter summer day
G7 G7 C C
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
C7 C7 F F
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
D D Dm G
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
C Em D D
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Dm G7 C G7
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight.
[Verse 2]
(Talking verses, play the same chords)
C Em Am
I wonder if you are lonesome tonight
Am C
You know someone said that the world's a stage
And we each must play a part.
C7 F F
Fate had me playing in love, you as my sweetheart.
G
Act one was where we met, I loved you at first glance
G7 G7
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
G7 G7 C
Then came act 2, you seemed to change, you acted strange
And why, I've never known.
C7 C7 F
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
F
And I had no cause to doubt you.
D7
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Dm G
Than to go on living without you.
C Em D
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
D Dm
With emptiness all around
G7
And if you won't come back to me
C G7
Then they can bring the curtain down.
(sing again)
C Em D D
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Dm G7 C
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
