You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

[G] [G/F#] [Em] [C9] [G] [D] [G]

 

[G] I've seen love go [G/F#] by my door

[Em] It's never been this [C9] close before

[G] Never been so [D] easy or so [Dsus4] slow

Been [G] shooting in the [G/F] dark too long

[Em] When somethin's not [C9] right it's wrong

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

 

[G] Dragon clouds so [G/F#] high above

[Em] I've only known [C9] careless love

[G] It's always [D] hit me from [Dsus4] below

[G] This time around it's [G/F] more correct

[Em] Right on target, [C9] so direct

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

 

[G] [G/F#] [Em] [C9] [G] [D] [G]

 

[G] Purple clover, [G/F#] Queen Anne's Lace

[Em] Crimson hair [C9] across your face

[G] You could make me [D] cry if you don't [Dsus4] know

[G] Can't remember what I was [G/F] thinkin' of

[Em] You might be spoilin' me [C9] too much, love

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

 

[D] Flowers on the hillside, bloomin' [G] crazy

[D] Crickets talkin' back and forth in [G] rhyme

[A/C#] Blue river runnin' slow and lazy

[C9] I could stay with you forever and [D] never realize the time [Dsus4]

 

[G] Situations have [G/F#] ended sad

[Em] Relationships have [C9] all been bad

[G] Mine've been like [D] Verlaine's and Rimbaud [Dsus4]

But [G] there's no way I [G/F] can compare

[Em] All those scenes to [C9] this affair

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

 

[D] Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm [G] doin'

[D] Stayin' far behind without [G] you

[A/C#] Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin'

[C9] Yer gonna make me give myself a good [D] talkin' to

 

I'll [G] look for you in [G/F#] old Honolulu

[Em] San Francisco, [C9] Ashtabula

[G] Yer gonna have to [D] leave me now, I [Dsus4] know

But [G] I'll see you in the [G/F] sky above

[Em] In the tall grass, in the [C9] ones I love

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go

 

[G] [G/F#] [Em] [C9] [G] [D]

 

[G] Oooh [G/F] Oooh [Em] Oooh [C9] Oooh

[G] Yer gonna make me [D] lonesome when you [G] go
