Lonesome to the bone
written & performed by Johnny Cash
on the 1974 Columbia album:"Ragged old flag".
(also another version on the 1975 album:"John R. Cash").


(A) On the park bench I slept on
Raindrops was fallin' on
The (Bm) newspapers coverin' me
(D) I hear early mornin' (A) motors
And (D) I know the world is (A) wakin'
For the (Bm) dawn
But (D) my mind's down a dark alley
Some(A)where where last night you loved me
And (D) in the early mornin' (A) chill
My (D) arms remember (A) still
But I'm (D) droppin' like a (A) stone
(Bm) Lonesome to the (A) bone

Chorus:
The (D) sun is roughly risin'
On the (A) roofs of Stagger town
The (D) time for sweatin' poison out
Is (Bm) just now comin' (A) round
The (D) high time of last midnight
Is (A) over with and (D) gone
(A) Leavin' me to be
(Bm) Lonesome to the (A) bone

(A) I walk the way the wind blows
And anyway the wind goes
Will be (Bm) good enough for me
The (D) streets are loud and (A) crowded
But (D) I walked my weary (A) way
Lost and (Bm) alone
Your (D) hot breathe and your laughter
Keep (A) flashing through my mind to warm me
But (D) the naked light of (A) day
Soon (D) make it fade (A) away
And I'm (D) droppin' like a (A) stone
(Bm) Lonesome to the (A) bone

Repeat chorus.
