Heartbreak Hotel (Chromatic)

By Mae Boren Axton, Tommy Durden
& Elvis Presley
Key:C

7 8 -9 8 -7 -7* 7
Now since my ba-by left me
6 7 -7 8 -7* 7 -7*
I’ve found a new place to dwell:
8 -9 9 -9*9 -9 8 -7* 7
down at the end of Lone-ly Street
-7 -7*-77 7 -6 6
at Heart-break Ho-tel.
-3 5 -5* 5 -3 5 6 5
I’m so lone-ly, I’m so lone-ly,
-3 4 -5* 4 4 -3 5 5
I’m so lone-ly that I could die.
7 8 -9 8 -7 -7* 7
And though it’s al-ways crowd-ed
6 7 -7 8 -7* 7 -7*
you can still find some room
8 -9 9 10 9 -9 8 -7*
for bro-ken heart-ed lov-ers
77 -7* -7 7 -6 6
to cry there in the gloom
6 -3 4 -5* 4 -3 4 6 4
and be so lone-ly, oh so lone-ly,
-3 4 -5* 4 -3 4 4
oh so lone-ly they could die.

The bell hop’s tears keep flowing,
the desk clerk’s dressed in black.
They been so long on Lonely Street
they never will go back
and they’re so lonely, oh they’re so lonely,
they’re so lonely they pray to die.

So if your baby leaves
and you have a tale to tell
just take a walk down Lonely Street
to Heartbreak Hotel
where you’ll be lonely and I’ll be lonely,
we’ll be so lonely that we could die.
