(Standard tuning - Capo at the 1st fret)

I don't [Bb]need [Bb]no[F]body 
to [Bb]call me on the [F]phone 
I don't need no [F]company
I'd rather be a[C]lone 

[Bb]I'm [Bb]just [F]happy by my[Bb]self 
here  being [F]blue [Bb]
I'm not [F]lonely, 
I'm just [C]lonesome for [F]you 

 
[Bb]When [Bb]my [F] friends come, 
I [Bb]don't care if they [F]stay 
When they [F]talk to me,
I don't care what they [C]say 

[Bb]You're [Bb]still [F]gone so darlin'[Bb] 
there ain't nothing [F]new 
[Bb]I'm not [F]lonely,
I'm just [C]lonesome for [F]you

 
I'll just be [C]lonesome 
without you [F]here 
'cause there ain't [G]no one 
I love like you [C]dear

[Bb]Think[Bb]in' [F]of you 
is [Bb]all I ever [F]do 
[Bb] I'm not [F] lonely,
I'm just [C] lonesome for [F] you 
 
(Instrumental break)
 
[Bb][Bb]Any [F]comfort I [Bb]find 
these days is [F]small 
Every [F]body tries 
but nothing helps at [C]all 

[Bb]They'd [Bb]just [F]give up 
be[Bb]fore they started if they [F]knew 
[Bb]that I'm not [F]lonely,
I'm just [C]lonesome for [F]you 
 
 
I'll just be [C]lonesome 
without you [F]here 
'cause there ain't [G]no one 
I love like you [C]dear 

[Bb]Think[Bb]in' [F]of you 
is [Bb]all I ever [F]do 
[Bb] I'm not [F] lonely,
I'm just [C]lonesome for [F] you 

[Bb] I'm not [F]lonely,
I'm just [C]lonesome for [F]you
