(In 3/4 Time)
CHear the lonesome Amwhipor-Cwill,
He Csounds too blue to C7fly.
The Fmidnight train is Amwhining Clow,
I'm so Clonesome G7I could Ccry.
I have Cnever seen a Amnight so Clong,
When Ctime goes crawling C7by.
The Fmoon just went be-Amhind a Ccloud,
To Chide his G7face and Ccry.
Have you Cever seen a Amrobin Cweep,
When Cleaves begin to C7die?
Like Fme, he's lost the Amwill to Clive,
And I'm so Clonesome G7I could Ccry.
instrumental
The Csilence of a Amfalling Cstar,
Lights Cup the purple C7sky.
And Fas I wonder Amwhere you Care,
I'm so Clonesome G7I could Ccry.
