Now my Ab7room has got two windows But the sunshine never comes through You know it's always dark and dreary Since I broke off, baby with you
I live on a Ab7lonely avenue My little girl wouldn't say I do Well, I feel so sad and blue And it's all because of you
[Chorus]
(I couldEb7 cry, I could cry, I could cry) I could cry, I could cry, Oooh! (I could Db7die, I cloud die, I could die) I need help from somebody Because I live on a Ab7lonely avenue (Lonely avenue) Oh yes sir!
[Verse]
Now you now my Ab7cover feel like lead And my pillow feels like stone Well, I've tossed and turned so every night I'm not used to being alone I live on a Eb7lonely avenue My little girl wouldn't say I do Well, I feel so sad and blue You know it's all because of you
[Chorus]
(I couldEb7 cry, I could cry, I could cry) I could cry, I could cry, Oooh! (I could Db7die, I cloud die, I could die) Ooh! Because I live on a Ab7lonely avenue (Lonely avenue) Yes, sir! (Lonely avenue)
[Solo] | Ab7 | Ab7 | Db7 | Db7 | | Eb7 | Db7 | Ab7 | Ab7 | (Choir sings "Lonely avenue" on Ab7) [Verse]
Now I've Ab7been so sad and lonesome Since you left this town You know if I could beg of borrow money Child, I would be (a) highway bound I live on a Ab7lonely avenue My little girl wouldn't say I do Well, I feel so sad and blue You know it's all because of you
[Chorus]
(I couldEb7 cry, I could cry, I could cry) I could cry, I could cry, Oooh! (I could Db7die, I cloud die, I could die) Oooooo, yeaa Because I live on a Ab7lonely avenue (Lonely avenue) Ooooh, avenue! (Lonely avenue)
