Did you hear that lonesome whippoorwill? 
   Bb                 Fm  F Bb 
He sounds too blue to fly. 
    Eb                Bb      Gm7 
The midnight train is winding low.

I'm so lonesome I could cry. 

 
Bb                         F          Bb 
I've never seen a night so long..when time  
              Fm 
goes crawlin' by? 
Bb  Eb               Bb     Gm7 
The moon just went behind a cloud. 
   Bb       F        Bb....G 
To hide its face and cry. 

 
Am7     C                      G    C 
Did you ever see a robin weep..when leaves  
         Gm7 
begin to die? 
     F                   C       Am7 
That means he's lost the will to live.

And I'm so lonesome I could cry. 

 
    C                G   C 
The silence of a fallin' star, lights up a  
       Gm7  C 
purple sky.

And as I wonder where you are, I'm so lonesome  
G       C   Am7 
I could cry.
