[Intro]
 (E)  (E)  (E)  (E)
If Elonesome was money, I'd be set for life
DI'd be Eswimming in riches instead of tears I've cr E7ied
The Ablues would be worth a whole lot of green
EYou'd never hear one complaint from me
If Blonesome was money, AI'd Bbe set for Elife
If Elonesome was a woman, I'd never be alone
DI'Ed always have someone there to love me and to hoE7ld
ALeave misery's clutches, find love's embrace
EThis frown you see, a smile would replace
If Blonesome was a woman, AI'd Bnever be a Elone
AHow I'd like to change Elonesome
To mean Asomething happy and Bfree
ABut, that Bwon't ever Ehappen, you C#msee
ALonesome will Balways be C#mme
ALonesome will Balways be Eme
If Elonesome was a liquor, I could run a still
DBoEttle up my tears and let the folks drink their fiE7ll
AIt'd be happy hour all the time seven days a week
And Elaughter's all you'd ever hear from me
If Blonesome was a liquor, AI Bcould run a Estill
AHow I'd like to change Elonesome
To mean Asomething happy and Bfree
ABut, that Bwon't ever Ehappen, you C#msee
ALonesome will Balways be C#mme
ALonesome will Balways be Eme
AHow I'd like to change Elonesome
To mean Asomething happy and Bfree
ABut, that Bwon't ever Ehappen, you C#msee
ALonesome will Balways be C#mme
ALonesome will Balways be Eme
