She left me there on the cold cold ground

With no one left to help me now

But I never thought she would sink that low

Tryin' to drown my sorrows with pills and weed
D G F D
Got a jukebox full of sad sad songs
C G F D
Just to help me move my blues a-long

Because I'm high and lonesome

And it'll never bring my baby back
D G F D
That old whippoorwill a-sangin' sad and true
C G F D
Won't be enough to get over you
[Chorus]

Because I'm high and lonesome

I've been kicked around'n then some

My life sounds like an old Hank song

Because I'm high and lonesome

Yes I'm high and lonesome
