Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?

Are you sorry we drifted apart?

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?

I wonder if you are lonesome tonight

You know someone said that the world's a stage
And we each must play a part.
C7 F F
Fate had me playing "in love" with you as my sweetheart.
G
Act one was where we met, I loved you at first glance
G7 G7
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
G7 G7 C
Then came act two, you seemed to change, you acted strange
And why, I've never known.
C7 C7 F
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
F
And I had no cause to doubt you.
D7
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Dm G
Than to go on living without you.

Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
D Dm
With emptiness all around
G7
And if you won't come back to me
C G7
Then they can bring the curtain down.
C Em D D
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.
