Carter Family - Are You Lonesome Tonight Chords

    C              C  
Are you lonesome tonight.

       C         C
Do you miss me I say.  

        C        C        A7 (Dm-one strum) A7
Are you sorry we drifted apart.

Do your memories cling,

     G7           G7
To a bright sunny day.

       Dm7            G7              C     C
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart.


Like the rose on the vine I am clinging to you
As I did when we drifted apart
I am wishing you back to that little shack
Where I kissed you and called you sweetheart

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare.

Cm     D7           D7           G7      F#7 G7
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me  there.

        C             C-C7
Is your heart full of pain.

        D7         D7
Shall I come back again.

        G7           G7         C
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.


(repeat verse 1 as chorus)


I have counted the days, I've counted the nights
I've counted the months and the years
I have counted on you since we drifted apart
Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
