G Em G Em
Black river flows so slowly there's no
G Em G Em
knowing its direction
G Am C B#m
Just as aimlessly I followed you
Bm D Am
acourtin your affection
C G D
As surely as it's flowin down
Am
I'll hear that high lonesome sound
G Em G Cadd9
Another solitary sun west bound
Towards lonesome sundown
[Chorus]
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
[Verse]
G Em G Em
Lonesome toil Lonesome task
G Em G Em
Bring us comfort from the past
G Am C B#m
Stroll boldly down the path quietly
Bm D Am
Celebrate what we don't have
C G D
Sun shining reminding us
Am
Of comfort from weather beaten hands
G Em G Cadd9
Sunset homesick silhouette
Against the rope burned west
[Chorus]
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
[Verse]
G Em G Em
Feel no need to reason why
G Em G Em
the sun will rise and set
G Am C B#m
Just as I dont burden our
Bm D Am
last scene with no regret
C G D
Heading west out cross the tracks
Am
Then deep currents draw me back
G Em G Cadd9
Still waters can often hide the fact
Two hearts are crossed so deep
[Chorus]
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
G Am Em
lonesome sundown
G C Am
lonesome sundown
G
lonesome sundown
