#1.
C#m7                        G#m
What'll you do when you get lonely,
C#m7         C       D       E
and nobody's waiting by your side? 
F#m         B           E               A
You've been running and hiding much too long. 
F#m                     B       E
You know it's just your foolish pride. 

CHORUS:
A    Dm  A#     C            Dm
Lay..la, you've got me on my knees. 
     Dm  A#  C                Dm
Lay..la, I'm begging, darling please.

I tried to give you consolation,
C#m7          C       D       E
when your old man had let you down. 
F#m    B       E                 A
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
F#m       B                  E
turned my whole world upside down. 

CHORUS:

#3.
C#m7                       G#m
Let's make the best of the situation,
C#m7     C       D    E
before I finally go insane. 
F#m          B         E            A
Please don't say we'll never find a way,
F#m         B                E
and tell me all my love's in vain
