INTRO: C,G7,C,G7 
 
        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 you memory stray to a brighter sunny day 
       G7             G7              C      C 
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart? 
       C7             C7           F         F 
Do the chairs in your barroom seem empty and bare? 
       D            D            D          G 
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? 
        C             Em            D          D    
Is your heart full of pain, shall I come back again? 
        D            G7         C      G7 
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight. 
 
 
I wonder if you are lonesome tonight 
You know someone said the world's a stage  
And you must play a part  
Fate had me playing love twas my sweetheart 
Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance 
You read your line so cleaverly and never missed a cue 
Then came act2, you semmed to change and acted strange 
And why I'll never know 
Honey, you lied when you said yu loved me 
And I had no cause to doubt you 
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies 
Than to 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. 
 
       C             Em            D          D 
Is you heart full of pain, shall I come back again? 
        D            G7         C      G7 G7 C 
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight. 
 
 
This is another possible way to play it. During the spoken parts, the chords  
can be softly strummed or played around with following the same progression as  
the verse, it helps if you don't have those back-up singers hummin' and ooohing  
and stuff like that and you want some accompaniment.
