[intro]

Em/G Em/F# C/E - C/D C

I've seen love go by my door, it's never been this close before

G G D/A D/A

It's never been so easy or so slow

Em/G Em/F C/E - C/D C

I've been shooting in the dark too long, when something's not right, it's wrong

G D/F# G G

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Purple clover, Queen Anne's Lace, crimson hair across your face

You could make me cry if you don't know

I don't remember what I was thinking of, you might be spoiling me with too much

love, honey

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Em/G Em/F# C/E - C/D C G G D/A D/A

[instrumental]

Em/G Em/F C/E - C/D C G D/F# G G

[instrumental]

There are dragon clouds so high above, I have only known careless love

It always hit me from below

But this time 'round it's more correct, it's right on target and so direct

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

D/F# D/F# G G

Flowers on the hillside blowing crazy

D/F# D/F# G G

Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme

Blue river running slow and lazy

Am7 Am7 D/F# D/F# D/F# D/F# D/F# D/F#

I could stay with you forever, and never realize the time

But situations have ended sad, relationships have all been bad

Mine have been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud's

But there's no way I can compare all them scenes with this affair, honey

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Oh, you're gonna make me wonder what I'm doing

Staying far behind without you

You're gonna make me wonder what I'm saying

You're gonna make me give myself a good talking to

I will I look for you in Honolulu, San Francisco, Ashtabula

You're gonna have to leave me now, I know

But I'll see you in the skies above, in the tall grass and the ones I love

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

You're gonna make me lonesome
