I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry chords Hank Williams 1949 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27m_So_Lonesome_I_Could_Cry E B7 E
E                 E7      E
Hear the lonesome whippoorwill

                         E7
He sounds too blue to fly

    A                 E
The midnight train is whining low

                B7      E
I'm so lonesome I could cry

  E            E7       E
I never seen a night so long

                          E7
When time goes crawling by

    A                E
The moon just went behind the clouds

            B7       E   E7
To hide its face and cry
E E7 A E B7 E E7
        E          E7    E
Did you ever see a robin weep

                         E7
When leaves began to die?

     A                E
Like me he's lost the will to live

                B7      E   E7
I'm so lonesome I could cry
E E7 A E B7 E E7
    E            E7      E
The silence of a falling star

                      E7
Lights up a purple sky

    A           E
And as I wonder where you are

                B7      E
I'm so lonesome I could cry
