As Lonesome as It Gets Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
I've been [Am]sitting
here alone in the darkness
With the sound of goodbye
ringin' in my [G]head
I [Am]don't know how much
longer I can go on like this
[F]I'm about as [G]lonesome as it gets[Am]
[F]Just about as [G]lonesome as it gets[Am]

[Verse 2]
For [Am]a long time now,
we've been drifting apart
I should have been glad to see you [G]go
But [Am]now that it's over and
you're on a silver jet
[F]It's about as lone[G]some as it gets
[Am]Just[F] about as
[G]lonesome as [Am]it gets
[G][Chorus] If it rained

[Verse 3]
[F]
straight whiskey
[Am]forty days and nights
It [C]would't be enough
to numb this hurt I feel
[Am]Or keep [F]this lump that's
in my throat
From chok[Am]in' me to death
[C]I'm about as lonesome as it [E]gets
Just about as lonesome as it gets
[Am]

[Interlude 1]
[G]
[Am][F][G][Am]
[F][G][Am]

[Verse 4]
When they [Am]dig
a six foot hole in the ground
and throw the dirt over [G]me
Just [Am]let these words mark
my final place of rest
[F]This is [G]as [Am]lone[F]
[G]some [Am]as it[G] g[F]ets
[Am]Damn[C] sure[Am][F]
[Am]as[C]
lonesome as it get[E]s

[Outro 1]
[Chorus]
[E][Am][F][G]
[Am][F][G][Am]
