G D7 G G

GHear that Bmlonesome Em7whippoor-Bmwill

he Gsounds too Bmblue to Dm7fly G7

The Cmidnight train is Gwhining Emlow

I'm so Glonesome D7I could Gcry D7

 

I've Gnever Bmseen a Em7night so Bmlong

when Gtime goes Bmcrawling Dm7by G7

The Cmoon just went be-Ghind a Emcloud

to Ghide its D7face and Gcry D7

 

Did you Gever Bmsee a Em7robin Bmweep

when Gleaves be-Bmgan to Dm7die G7

That Cmeans he's lost the Gwill to Emlive

I'm so Glonesome D7I could Gcry

 

The Gsilence Bmof a Em7falling Bmstar

lights Gup a Bmpurple Dm7sky G7

And Cas I wonder Gwhere you Emare,

I'm so Glonesome D7I could Gcry F7

 

And Cas I wonder Gwhere you Emare,

I'm so Glonesome D7I could Gcry
