Intro: C9 C9' C9 G D x2
Verse 1:
D C9 C9' C9 G D
well I'll bet my Maria's got an elbow full of lonely
C9 C9' C9 G D
now here's a little prayer so that she might get some sleep
C9 C9' C9 G D
don't let her face get skinned by the sun today
Am' Am Bm D
don't let it in when it comes knocking at your door
Chorus:
[Em7]loneliness
[C9]loneliness
[G]loneliness
[D]oh oh
Verse 2:
sometimes you feel you've got the emptiest arms in the whole world
try to make sense but it always comes out absurd
sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers
don't let it in when it comes kicking at your door
Chorus:
[Em7]loneliness
[C9]loneliness
[G]loneliness
[D]oh oh
[C9]came kicking at my door
Verse 3:
[G]she said I've reall[D]y come to hate my [Em]body[C][Cm7]
[G]and all the things that [D]it requires in this [Em]world[C][Cm7]
[G]I bet you're out[D] there getting [Em]drunk with all your[C] friends[Cm7]
[A]and it'll get you in the bathroom of a Te[D]xaco
Chorus:
Outro:
C9 C9' C9 G D repeat to fade
Riffs over outro:
e|--7-------15--14----------------------------|
B|-------------------15--17--15--12-----------|
It's also reciprocated an octave lower hence:
e|--------------------------------------------|
B|--3-------8--7--3-----5--3--0---------------|
Those are the main two riffs then it's adlibbed from thereon to fade.
