Key of d
(d) I’m lonesome for someoneto (g) kiss me good — (d) night
Just the way you used to (a7) do
My (d) achin’ heart needs someoneto (g) shine love’s (d) light
For without youI’ll (a7) always be (d) blue.
1st chorus
(d) if I (g) don’t have youto (d) help me along
I (g) know I can never go (d) right
With — (g) out you beside meto (d) show me the way
I’m lostlike a (a7) stranger in the (d) night.
Like a lonely dove that fliesfrom pine to pine
My heart can’t be gay and light
Like sightless eyesthat will never see the sun
I’m lostlike a stranger in the night.
2nd chorus
There’s no need for meto even try
Nothin’ will turn out right
When I lost your loveI lost the will to live
And I’m lostlike a stranger in the night
3rd chorus
Like a broken heartthat’s lost on life’s sea
Tho I pray with all my might
I know I can’t faceto — morrow alone
And I’m lostlike a stranger in the night.
