[Chorus]
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at all
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all
[Verse 1]
G#
My thoughts are wicked and rotten
G#
My goat don't wanna be gotten
G#
And I had my fill of the whippoorwill
G#
When he broke into song I shot him
C# G#
Leave me alone
[Chorus]
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at all
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all
[Verse 2]
G#
Well the train is loaded and leaving
G#
And Lord only knows I don't need it
G#
And I snub my nose when the whistle blows
G#
But it's never enough to get even
G#
Get out of here and leave me alone
G#
Get out of here and leave me alone
[Verse 3]
G#
The moon can do what he pleases
G#
He can cry so much that he sneezes
G#
And if a falling star falls in my yard
G#
Well I'll pick up the pieces
C# G#
Get out of here
[Chorus]
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at all
G#
What does it take to be lonesome?
C# G#
Nothing at ah-ah-ah-ah-all

What does it take to be lonesome?
