Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight?

C

C7

F

Are you sorry we drifted apart?

G

G7

Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day

G7

C

When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

C7

F

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?

D

Dm

G

Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?

C

Em

D

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

Dm

G7

C

G7

Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight? I wonder if you are lonesome tonight? You know someone said that the world is a stage And you must play a part Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweet heart Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange And why I'll never know Honey, you're lying when you said you loved me And I had no cause to doubt you But I'd rather go on hearing your lies Than 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 they can bring the curtain down

C

Em

D

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?

On suspicious minds So, if an old friend I know, drops by to say hello Would I still see suspicion in your eyes? Here we go again, asking where I've been You can see these tears are real I'm crying We can't go on together With suspicious minds And we can't build our dreams

C

As the snow flies

Em

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

F

G

C

A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto And his mama cries 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need It's another hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto

G

People, don't you understand

F

C

The child needs a helping hand

F

G

C

Or hell grow to be an angry young man some day

C

G

Take a look at you and me

F

C

Are we too blind to see

F

Em

Do we simply turn our heads

F

G

And look the other way Well the world turns And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto And his hunger burns So he starts to roam the streets at night And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight in the ghetto

G

Then one night in desperation

F

C

A young man breaks away

F

Em

He buys a gun, steals a car

F

G

Tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto As her young man dies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' Another little baby child is born in the ghetto
