I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry  Hank Williams

Dear Cowpie,
I've found a lot of great music on your sight and I
thought I would try to make a contribution. There is a
existing transcription of this song on your sight but
it is in a different key from the original recorded
version. I tried to keep it basic and as close to the
original recording as my ears would let me.
I'M SO LONESOME I COULD CRY
