VERSE ONE:
C                         G7
Everybody’s goin’ out and havin fun.
                                     C
I’m just a fool for stayin’ home and havin’ none.
                 C7             F
I can’t get over how she set me free.
G7            C
Oh...lonesome me.


VERSE TWO
C                                G7
A bad mistake I’m makin’ by just hanging ‘round.
                                       C
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town.
                       C7                   F
A lovesick fool that’s blind and just can’t see.
G7           C
Oh, lonesome me.

BRIDGE
     G                                 D7
I’ll bet she’s not like me,......she’s out and fancy free,
                                    G
flirting with the boys with all her charms.
                               D7                    
But I still love her so...and, brother don’t you know
                                      G      
I’d welcome her right back here in my arms.

VERSE THREE
G7          C                                 G7
Well, there must be someway I can lose these lonesome blues.
                                     C
Forget about the past and find some..body new.
                       C7              F
I’ve thought of every..thing from A to Z.
G7           C
Oh, lonesome me....
