[Verse]
Are you Clonesome toEmnight,
Do you Ammiss me tonight?
Are you Csorry we C7drifted aFpart?
Does your G7memory stray, to a brighter summer day
When I G7kissed you and Gaugcalled you sweetCheart?
Do the C7chairs in your parlor seem Fempty and bare?
Do you D7gaze at your doorstep, and Gpicture me there?
Is your Cheart filled with Empain, shall I D7come back again?
Tell me Dm7dear, are you G7lonesome toCnight? Gaug
[Verse] spoken
| C | Em | Am | % |
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
| C | C7 | F
You know someone said ... the world’s a stage and each must play a part.
| F | % |
They had me ... (mumbling) ... plus tax
| G7 | % | % | % |
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
| C | % | F | % |
Honey (who am I talking to?), you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
| C | Em | D7 | % |
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
Without any air (oh no)
| Dm7 | G7 | C | Gaug |
And if you won't come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.
[Coda]
Is your Cheart filled with Empain, shall I D7come back again?
Tell me Dm7dear, are you G7lonesome tonightC? (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Cooooh)
