Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
G         Bm       C
I've seen love go by my door, it's never been this close before
G       Bm     D
Never been so easy or so slow
G             Bm
I've been shooting in the dark too long,
  C
when something isn't right it's wrong
G          D         G
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.

Verse 2:
G        Bm     C
Dragon clouds so high above, I've only known careless love,
G      Bm        D
It's always hit me right from below
G             Bm
But this time around it's more correct,
C
right on target, so direct,
G          D         G
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.

Verse 3:
G       Bm         C
Purple clover, Queen Anne's lace, crimson hair across your face,
G         Bm        D
You could make me cry if you don't know
G             Bm
Can't remember what I was thinkin' of,
 C
you might be spoilin' me too much love,
G          D         G
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.

Chorus:
D                 G
Flowers on the hillside, bloomin' crazy
D                 G
Crickets talkin' back and forth in rhyme
A
Blue river runnin' slow and lazy
Cadd9             D
I could stay with you forever, and never realize the time.

Verse 4:
G        Bm     C
Situations have ended sad, relationships have all been bad
G         Bm       D
Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud
G          Bm
But there's no way I can compare
C
all those scenes to this affair
G          D         G
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.

Break:
G D C C G G Bm G G Cadd9 G D G

Chorus:
D                  G
You're gonna make me wonder what I'm doin'
D             G
Stayin' far behind without you
A
You're gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin'
Cadd9               D
You're gonna make me give myself a good talkin' to.

Verse 5:
G            Bm    C
I'll look for you in old Honolula, San Francisco, and Ashtabula
G          Bm       D
You're gonna have to leave me now, I know.
G            Bm
But I'll see you in the sky above,
    C
in the tall grass, and in the ones I love,
G          D         G
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.
