G
I hear a lonesome dove off in the distance
                   D           G
His cry echoes out through the hills

He's sad that his lover flew off with another
               D         G
And I know the sorrow he feels
         C                   G
Lonesome dove we're not that different
           Bb           C            D
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
F                   C                            G   D
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
D Em           C             G    Bb C D Em
I know how you feel lonesome dove
  Em            C             G    Bb C G  Bb C G
I know how you feel lonesome dove
G
I've tried to run from the pain of her memory
                         D     G
But I can't find a place I can hide

And that old lonesome dove is gonna mourn for his love
          D           G
No matter how far he flies
         C                   G
Lonesome dove we're not that different
           Bb           C            D
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
F                   C                            G   D
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
D Em           C             G    Bb C D 
I know how you feel lonesome dove
  Em            C             G    Bb C G  Bb C G
I know how you feel lonesome dove
