Version 1 Version 2CHRISTINA PERRI ~ THE LONELY BY ~ FLOWAY ~ NB! WHEN USE "Am" you use Am - first finger. [OK note] [Verse] Em Bm 2am where do I begin, C G Am [check top] Crying off my face again. Em Bm The silent sound of loneliness C G Am [check top] Wants to follow me to bed. [Pre-Chorus] C D G Em I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most. C D Em [keep holding Em] I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well. [Chorus] Em Bm Dancing slowly in an empty room C G Am [check top] Can the lonely take the place of you? Em Bm I sing myself a quiet lullaby C G Let you go and let the lonely in Am To take my heart again Em Bm Too afraid to go inside C G Am [check top] For the pain of one more loveless night. Em Bm But the loneliness will stay with me C G Am [check top] And hold me til I fall asleep. [Pre-Chorus] C D G Em I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most. C D Em [keep holding Em] I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well. [Chorus] Em Bm Dancing slowly in an empty room, C G Am [check top] Can the lonely take the place of you? Em Bm I sing myself a quiet lullaby. C G Let you go and let the lonely in Am To take my heart again. [Bridge] G Em Broken pieces of G C A barely breathing story G Em Where there once was love G Em Bm Now there's only me and the lonely. [Chorus] Em Bm Dancing slowly in an empty room, C G Am [check top] Can the lonely take the place of you? Em Bm I sing myself a quiet lullaby. C G Let you go and let the lonely in Am To take my heart again.
