[Chorus]
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all

[Verse 1]
A
My thoughts are wicked and rotten
A
My goat don't wanna be gotten
A
And I had my fill of the whippoorwill
A
When he broke into song I shot him
D        A
Leave me alone

[Chorus]
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all

[Verse 2]
A
Well the train is loaded and leaving
A
And Lord only knows I don't need it
A
And I snub my nose when the whistle blows
A
But it's never enough to get even
A
Get out of here and leave me alone
A
Get out of here and leave me alone

[Verse 3]
A
The moon can do what he pleases
A
He can cry so much that he sneezes
A
And if a falling star falls in my yard
A
Well I'll pick up the pieces
D          A
Get out of here

[Chorus]
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all

[Guitar Solo]
A

[Chorus]
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at all
A
What does it take to be lonesome?
D            A
  Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all
