Nobody’s Lonesome for Me

Hank WIlliams, Sr.

[G] Everybody’s lonesome for somebody else
But nobody’s lonesome for [D7] me
Everybody’s thinkin’ ’bout somebody else
But nobody thinks about [G] me
When the [C] time rolls around for me to [G] lay down and die
I bet [D7] I’ll have to go and hire me [A7] someone to [D] cry
[G] Everybody’s lonesome for somebody else
[D7] nobody is lonesome for [G] me.

[G] Everybody’s longin’ for somebody else
But nobody’s longin’ for [D7] me
Everybody’s dreamin’ about somebody else
But nobody dreams about [G] me
All I [C] need is a bride who want’s a [G] big-hearted groom
I [D7] wouldn’t care if she come ridin’ [A7] in on a [D] broom
[G] Everybody’s lonesome for somebody else
[D7] Nobody’s lonesome for [G] me

[G] Everybody’s pinin’ for somebody else
But nobody’s pinin’ for [D7] me
Everybody’s crazy ’bout somebody else
But nobody’s crazy ’bout [G] me
Oh, I [C] shined up my shoes and then I [G] slicked down my hair
Put [D7] on my Sunday best, but I ain’t [A7] goin’ [D] nowhere
[G] Everybody’s lonesome for somebody else
[D7] But nobody’s lonesome for [G] me

[G] Everybody’s yearnin’ for somebody else
But nobody’s yearnin’ for [D7] me
Everybody’s fallin’ for somebody else
But nobody’s fallin’ for [G] me
Now I [C] ain’t had a kiss since I fell [G] out of my crib
It [D7] looks to me like I been cheated [A7] out of my [D] rib
[G] Everybody’s lonesome for somebody else
[D7] Nobody’s lonesome for [G] me
