two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart

Allemande left and weave
Does your memory stray
To that bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you Sweetheart


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

Oh those heads square thru four now
You make a right hand star
Those heads you star left now
Dosado that corner there
Gonna swing thru, boys trade
Swing your corner, promenade
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight


FIGURE (ALTERNATE)    Mainstream, corner progression

Sides face, grand square
You know the world's a stage, and we each had a part
I was in love and you were my sweetheart
Now honey you're gone and I'm all alone
If you won't come back to me, they can bring the curtain down

Sides you square thru go four
Swing your corner, promenade the floor
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Do the chairs in your parlor
Seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep
And picture me there
, allemande and weave
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart

Allemande left and weave
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight


TAG

Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
