A
Poor old heartsick me

                     E7
Twice as lonely as a girl oughta be
What will the future be
                      A
For poor old heartsick me?

A
I thought I was immune to that big yellow moon

                               E7
And it's magic that all lovers know
In the moonlight it's hard to keep your heart on guard
                               A
Against love that's waiting to grow
Held so close in your arms all my calls for alarm
     A7                              D
Just rolled on like the waves in the sea

                               A
When you cast me aside I just sat down and cried

E7                 A
Poor old heartsick me

A
Poor old heartsick me

                     E7
Twice as lonely as a girl oughta be
What will the future be
                      A
For poor old heartsick me?

A
In my heart I believe God made Adam for Eve

                                 E7
Just the same as he made you for me
What if Adam like you had gone off a-rambling too
                                A
What kind of a world would this be?
You don't want to admit that you too have been bit
      A7                   D
By the love bug, but golly gee!

                                A
Why can't you realize that you mean paradise

   E7                 A
To poor old heartsick me

A
Poor old heartsick me

                     E7
Twice as lonely as a girl oughta be
What will the future be
                      A
For poor old heartsick me?
