Lonely Is A Lifetime

Intro: C, Am

Verse:
C                          Am    
No one really knows her first 
            Em            G
name, but they all hold her hand

C                         Am     
Everyone leans on her windowpane 
       Em          G
but no one looks in

     C  Am            C   Am
She’s so     far from home


Chorus:
     F       G             Em    
But only the starlight can turn 
         Am
this town cold
     F          G           Em   
And lonely is a lifetime of 
                 Am
getting used to being alone
   F    G          C     Am      
So where   do you go?
C       Am

The street lights come with a 
Am               Em         G
cool breeze and she waits all night
   C                       
And just before the morning 
 Am                   Em         G
sunlight, she breaks down and cries

      C    Am            C    Am
She’s trying  to make it right

getting used to being alone
   F    G          C     Am      
So where   do you go?
