E
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
                         (E7)
He sounds too blue to fly
    A                 E
The midnight train is whining low
                Bsus    E
I'm so lonesome I could cry


[Verse 2]
E
I've never seen a night so long
                          (E7)
When time goes crawling by
    A                E
The moon just went behind a cloud
            Bsus     E
To hide its face and cry

[Verse 3]
E
Did you ever see a robin weep
                        (E7)
When leaves begin to die
     A                   E
That means he's lost the will to live
                Bsus    E
I'm so lonesome I could cry

[Verse 4]
E
The silence of a falling star
                      (E7)
Lights up a purple sky
    A           E
And as I wonder where you are
                Bsus    E
I'm so lonesome I could cry
