Mary cries out: For the love of God 
         C6                G           D 
As she's walking out of the laundromat 
         Am                  G              Dm 
Down the street and it's the short way home 
         F                  G 
Feeling special cause she's so alone 
       Bb     F 
But we know                   
                          G     D   D7 
(The world's full of lonely people) 
       Bb     F 
And it shows  
                        G      D 
(The world's full of lonely people) 
               C6                       G      D 
She shrugs her coat off and unlocks the door 
          C6                       G      D 
Eats her dinner on the kitchen floor 
         C6                     G      D 
Writes a poem and turns the radio on 
         C6             G 
Every singer sings the same old song 
       Bb     F 
And it goes 
                       G      D      C6 
(The world's full of lonely people) 
        Bb     F 
And it shows            G      Dm 
(The world's full of lonely people) 
                Dm 
But when we she wanted me to go 
         A             C6      Bb 
She just had to let it show 
    Am       A          Dm 
To bring me down if she wanted me to leave 
          A7            C6     Bb    Am 
She just wore it on her sleeve 
         A           D  F6    G    D F G D F6 G D F/C G

As she's looking through old photographs 
         F6                  G           D 
Pictures taken from an early age 
       F6                    G           D 
Faces look back at her from the page 
         Bb 
And they say
