#1.
Gm7             G
I do my best to hide this low down feeling.
                                      D
I try to make believe there's nothing wrong.
                Gm7
Oh, but they're always asking me about you, 
C
darling.
       G              D                     G
And it hurts me so to tell them that you're gone.
 
#2.
G
If they ask me I guess I'd be denying, that I've 
                 D
been unhappy all along.
    Gm7
Oh, but if they heard my heart they'd hear it 
C
crying.
    G                   D                 G
Oh, where's my darling, when's she coming home?
 
CHORUS:
      C
Well, I've asked myself a million times what's 
G
right for me to do?
C                                Em
To try to lose my blues alone or hang around for 
D
you.
        G              Gm7             C
Well, I make it pretty good until that moon comes 
                     G             D       G
shining through, and then I get so doggone lonesome.
 
#3.
      Gm7                             G
Well, time stands still when you're a-waiting.
    Gm7                                 D
Sometimes I think my heart is stopping, too.
    Gm7                           C
You know one lonely hour seems forever.
     G             D                G
Just sixty minutes more to wait for you.
 
#4.
    Gm7                                       G
Oh, but I guess I'll keep waiting 'til you're with me.
      Gm7                           A    D
Cause I believe that loving you is right.
        Gm7                                C
Well, I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow.
   G                D         G
If I can't have you with me tonight.
 
CHORUS:
        C                                    G
Well, I know I'll keep on loving you because true 
 
love can't be killed.
  C                                         G
I know I ought to get you off my mind but I guess 
        D
I never will.
        G                          C
I could have a dozen others, but I know I'd love 
 
you still.
      G        D       G
Cause I get so doggone lonesome.
 
OUTRO:
G            D       G                      D
Oh, I get so doggone lonesome..oh, I get so doggone 
G
lonesome..(Fade.)
