I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Johnny Cash


Tom: C

C
Hear the lonesome whiperwill

He sounds too blue to fly
F             C
The midnight train is whining low
     G7         C
I'm so lonesome i could cry

C
I've never seen a night so long

When time goes crawling by
F          C
The moon just went behind a cloud
  G7             C
To hide it's face and cry

C
Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves begin to die
F           C
That means he's lost the will to live
     G7         C
I'm so lonesome i could cry

C
The silence of a falling star

Lights up a purple sky
F         C
And as i wonder where you are
     G7         C
I'm so lonesome i could cry
