Lonely Tonight    C. von Sneidern   CHORDS/LYRICS/CHART

 

| A | A | A | A |

 

| A                | A                 | F#m           | F#m |

Left for dead in the stood up section of all unanswered calls

| A              | A                 | F#m             | F#m |

Someone’s crying a needless loneliness just beyond these walls

|       Bm    | E                    | A   | A   |

Are you lonely? I know you’re lonely tonight

 

| A                | A                 | F#m           | F#m |

I could spend all my time just talkin’ but I already know

| A              | A                 | F#m             | F#m |

We got nothing to do and probably you want somewhere to go

|         Bm    | E                    | A   | A   |

If you’re lonely, I suppose I’m lonely tonight

 

| C#m         | C#m       | F#m            | F#m |

Sitting in your silent Saturday will turn to Monday

|     C#m             | C#m           | D           | E | E |

And I don’t suspect you have a plan for Sunday or the rest-

 

| A                | A            | F#m            | F#m |

You’re so quiet, and I decided that I’ll disturb the peace

| A                | A                 | F#m           | F#m |

Dot and dash on the wall, code crash announcing our release

|            Bm    | E                    | A   | A   |

‘cause we’re lonely, knowing we’re lonely tonight

|               Bm    | E                         | A   | A   |

oh, when you’re lonely, any romance could feel just right

 

| C#m    | C#m           | F#m          | F#m |

I admit to looking in your window passing on the stairs

|   C#m      | C#m           | D                | C# |

And anyone who saw the way you looked would never dare

|     F#m               | F#m         |

But I tried the knob, the door was open

| E           | C#      | F#m     | Bm           | E |  E |

Turned the mystery into a felony, a fear for me to face

 

| A                | A            | F#m            | F#m |

Wide-eyed standing in your kitchen Noticed that the floor plan’s opposite mine

| A                | A            | F#m            | F#m |

Scared straight, looking at your t-shirt, you explain that mistakes are fine

|            Bm    | E                    | A   | F#   |

If you’re only, only on your way back home, right?

|            Bm    | E                    | A   | F#   |

Yes, I’m only, only mistakin’ the left from the right, right?

|            Bm    | E                    | A   | A   |

‘cause I’m lonely, you owe me that, I’m lonely tonight

|          A               | A   |

I’m lonely tonight, lonely tonight…
