"Lonely Avenue"
Capo 4th Fret
Em A Em
Now my room has got two windows
Em A Em
But the sunshine never comes through
Em A Em
You know it's always dark and dreary
Em A Em
Since I broke off, baby with you
Em A Em
I live on a lonely avenue
Em A Em
My little girl wouldn't say I do
Em A Em
Well, I feel so sad and blue
Em A Em
And it's all because of you
B B B
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry
A A A
I could die, I could die, I could die
Em A Em
Because I live on a lonely avenue
Em A Em
Lonely avenue
Now my covers they feel like lead
And my pillow it feels like stone
Well, I've tossed and turned so every night
I'm not used to being alone
I live on a lonely avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
Well, I feel so sad and blue
And it's all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry
I could die, I could die, I could die
Because I live on a lonely avenue
Lonely avenue
Lonely avenue
Lonely avenue
Now I've been so sad and lonesome
Since you've left this town
You know if I could beg or borrow the money
Child, I would be a highway bound
I live on a lonely avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
Well, I feel so sad and blue
You know its all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry
I could die, I could die, I could die
I live on a lonely avenue
Lonely avenue
