[Verse 1]
             
There's a plac

          
e where lovers

 go
             
To cry their t

      
roubles away
 E        Em       B   A(flat)m
And they call it Lonesome Town
           
Where the brok

           
en hearts stay


[Verse 2]
             
You can buy a 

 
dream or two
             
To last you al

              
l through the 

 
years
E       Em    B       A(flat)m
And the only price you pay
           
Is a heart ful

  
l of tears


[Bridge]
E              E(flat)m
Goin' down to Lonesome town
           
Where the brok

           
en hearts stay
E              E(flat)m
Goin' down to Lonesome town
           
To cry my trou

      
bles away


[Verse 3]
             
In the town of

  
 broken dreams
             
The streets ar

              
e filled with 

 
regret
E      Em      B     A(flat)m
Maybe down in Lonesome Town
           
I can learn to

   
 forget (To fo

rget)


[Outro]
E      Fm       B     A(flat)m
Maybe down in Lonesome Town
           
I can learn to

  
 forget
