Intro: Dm G C G C Em Am Am Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight? C C F F Are you sorry we drifted apart? G G G G Does your memory stray to a brighter summer day G G C C When I kissed you and called you sweetheart? C C F F Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare? D D Dm G Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? C Em Is your heart filled with pain, D D Shall I come back again? Dm G C G Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight. C Em Am I wonder if you are lonesome tonight Am You know someone said that the world's a stage C And we each must play a part. C F Fate had me playing in love, You as my sweetheart. F Act one was where we met, G G I loved you at first glance G You read your line so cleverly G G And never missed a cue G Then came act 2, you seemed to change, C You acted strange C And why, I've never known. C C F Honey, you lied when you said you loved me F D And I had no cause to doubt. D But I'd rather go on hearing your lies Dm G C Than to go on living without you. Em D Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there D Dm With emptiness all around G And if you won't come back to me C Then they can bring the curtain down. G C Em Is your heart filled with pain, D D Shall I come back again? Dm G C Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
