B                          F#
Everybody's going out and having fun
                                      B
I'm just a fool for staying home and having none
B                 B7             E
I can't get over how she set me free
F#           B
Oh lonesome me

A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging round
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town
I thought of everything from A to Z
Oh lonesome me

Chorus:
      C#
I'll bet she's not like me she's out and fancy free
                                     F#
Flirting with the boys with all her charms
    C#
But I still love her so and brother don't you know
                                      F#
I'd welcome her right back here in my arms

Well there must be some way
I can lose these lonesome blues
Forget about the past and find somebody new
I thought of everything from A to Z
oh lonesome me
Chorus

Well there must be some way
I can lose these lonesome blues
Forget about the past and find somebody new
I thought of everything from A to Z
oh lonesome me oh lonesome me
