Chords

As recorded by Conway Twitty (From the 1966 Album SINGS) [Intro] E [Chorus]
E                A              E
That's what it's like to be lonesome

                    B7              E
I know 'cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy
[Verse 1]
E                        E7            A         E
The streets are dark and empty and you walk them all alone

                                     F#7              B7
You think about your love affair and wonder what went wrong

    E
You go to bed each night and pray

A                    E
You'll never see the dawn

 A             E                 B7             E
Afraid of each tomorrow with its heartless cold unknown
[Chorus]
E                    A              E
And that's what it's like to be lonesome

                 B7              E
A heart a broken love has taught to cry

                     A              E
And that's what it's like to be lonesome

                   B7              E   C
I know cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy
[Verse 2]
F                                 Bb          F
You search to find a tavern where the music's playing loud

                                      G7          C
You try to lose your heartache in the laughter of the crowd

    F
But the happy couples make you think

   Bb                F
Of things that might have been

        Bb            F
And you have to fight the teardrops

            C7          F
Till you're by yourself again
[Chorus]
F                    Bb             F
And that's what it's like to be lonesome

                 C7              F
A heart a broken love has taught to cry

                     Bb             F
And that's what it's like to be lonesome

                   C7              F
I know cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy
