Text size
 
Capo on 1st fret
              **st 
 
A              C#m     F#m 
It's like I've always figured 
         D         E     A 
You'd be gone from me so soon 
D                 E        A 
A heartache would be the outcome 
D                       E      A 
And I'd be singin' this lonely tune 
A                E                   A 
Your friends all tell me your happy now 
        D           E       A 
And how good she's treatin' you 
D           E        A 
It looks to be the perfect love 
D                    E      A 
Well tonight I'll be lonely too 
 
 
D           G         E 
You're only trying to show me 
A                 D              E 
It's no use, the pain's in your eyes 
D             G         E 
I know you've been so unhappy 
        A              D            E 
Talk of new love, the words are all lies 
           D      E              A 
So you'll go on pretending like always 
     D               E      A 
Well tonight I'll be lonely too 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
