Are You Lonesome Tonight Elvis Presley (1960) 1926 | (Blue Star 1566) Andy Andrus |
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic
Join hands, circle to the left, circle left for awhile
Reverse back along that line single file
Girls step out and back track meet your partner, box the gnat
Pull her by, corners all left allemande
Grand old right and left you travel in and out around the square
Promenade with your partner, she's waitin' for you there
*Promenade two by two, take her home and swing her too
**Don't you know that she's lonesome tonight?
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*If you're feelin' sad & blue then you know how I miss you
**Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Dosado your corners all, then you seesaw your taw
1 & 3 (2 & 4) right and left thru across that hall
Go the right, circle up 4, head gents break to a line of 4
Forward & back with you, pass on thru
Bend the line, star thru, square thru 3/4 round
When you find that corner, swing, promenade go round that town
***Promenade 2 by 2, take her home, swing her too
Don't you know that she's lonesome tonight?
ALTERNATE LYRICS
***If you're feelin' sad & blue, then you know how I miss you
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
***If your heart's filled with pain, shall I come back again
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
