Chords

[Intro] |G |D |G |G [Verse 1]
    G                                 C              G
The streets're dark and empty and you walk them all alone

                                     A7               D
You think about your love affair and wonder what went wrong

    G                                    C             G
You go to bed each night and pray you'll never see the dawn

 C               G               D              G
Afraid of each tomorrow with its heartless cold unknown
[Chorus]
                     C              G                          D                G
And that's what it's like to be lonesome with a heart a broken love taught to cry

                     C              G                       D                 G
And that's what it's like to be lonesome I know 'cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy
[Instrumental] |G |G D7 |D G |G [Verse 2]
              G                       C                 G
You search to find a tavern where the music is playing loud

           G                           A7              D
You try to lose your heartaches in the laughter of the crowd

        G                               C                      G
But the happy couples make you think of things that might have been

C                         G                     D            G
And you have to fight the teardrops till you're by yourself again
[Chorus]
                     C           G                             D              G
And that's what it's like to be lonesome with a heart a broken love taught to cry

                     C              G                        D               G
And that's what it's like to be lonesome I know 'cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy
