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
