              C        Em            Am         Am
     Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?
              C        C7          F  F
     Are you sorry we drifted apart?
                G      G            G7           G7
     Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day

     When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

     Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
             rem            G7        C    G7
     Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.

     (Talking verses,play the same chords)

     I wonder if   you are lonesome tonight
     You know someone said that the world is a stage
     And you must play a part.
     Fate had me playing in love twes my sweet heart.
     Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance
     You read your line so cleverly and never missed a 'q'
     Then came act 2, you seemed to change and you acted strange
     And why I'll never know.
     Honey, you're lying when you said you loved me
     And I had no cause to doubt you.
     But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
     Than go on living without you.
     Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
     With emptiness all around
     And if you won't come back to me
     Then make them bring the curtain down.

              (sing again)               

             C                 Em           D           D
     Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
             rem            G7        C    G7
     Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
