The Lonely Christina Perri
CHRISTINA PERRI ~ THE LONELY
BY ~ FLOWAY ~
NB! WHEN USE "Am" you use Am - first finger. [OK note]
[Em]2am where do [Bm]I begin,
C G Am [cbeck top]
Crying off my face again.
[Em]The silent sound of [Bm]loneliness
C G Am [cbeck top]
Wants to follow me to bed.
PRE. CHORUS:
I'm a [C]ghost of a [D]girl that I [G]want to be [Em]most.
C D Em [keep bolding Em]
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.
CHORUS:
[Em]Dancing slowly in an [Bm]empty room
C G Am [cbeck top]
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I [Em]sing myself a quiet [Bm]lullaby
[C]Let you go and let the [G]lonely in
Am [cbeck top]
To take my heart again
~
[Em]Too afraid to [Bm]go inside
C G Am [cbeck top]
For the pain of one more loveless night.
[Em]But the loneliness will [Bm]stay with me
C G Am [cbeck top]
And hold me til I fall asleep.
PRE. CHORUS:
I'm a [C]ghost of a [D]girl that I [G]want to be [Em]most.
C D Em [keep bolding Em]
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.
CHORUS:
[Em]Dancing slowly in an [Bm]empty room,
C G Am [cbeck top]
Can the lonely take the place of you?
[Em]I sing myself a quiet [Bm]lullaby.
[C]Let you go and let the [G]lonely in
Am [cbeck top]
To take my heart again.
BRIDGE:
[G]Broken pieces [Em]of
[G]A barely breathing [C]story
[G]Where there once was [Em]love
[G]Now there's only [Em]me and the [Bm]lonely.
FINAL CHORUS:
[Em]Dancing slowly in an [Bm]empty room,
C G Am [cbeck top]
Can the lonely take the place of you?
[Em]I sing myself a quiet [Bm]lullaby.
[C]Let you go and let the [G]lonely in
Am [cbeck top]
To take my heart again.
