Are You Lonesome Tonight (another Way)

Elvis Presley

INTRO: Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight? Are you sorry we drifted apart? Does you memory stray to a brighter sunny day When I kissed you and called you sweetheart? Do the chairs in your barroom seem empty and bare? Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? Is your heart full of pain, shall I come back again? 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. Is you heart full of pain, shall I come back again? 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.
