[Verse 1]
C                          G
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
   C          G       C
He sounds too blue to fly
    F        Dm       C       G
The midnight train is whining low
       C        G       C
I'm so lonesome I could cry

[Verse 2]
Am    C     Em     Am       C
 I've never seen a night so long
               Em       Gm7       C
When time goes crawling by (oohoohoohooh)
    F            Dm7  C      Am
The moon just went, behind a cloud
   C        G        C
To hide its face and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep?

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

    C#      Fm   A#m     C#
The silence of a fallin' star

Lights up a purple sky.

And as I won-der where you are
