[Intro]
E G#m G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
[Verse]
E
well it’s a big big city and it's always the same
G#m
can never be too pretty so tell me your name
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
is it out of line if I was to be bold and say "Would you be mine?"
E
Because I may be a beggar and you may be the queen
G#m
I know I may be on a downer I’m still ready to dream
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
Though it's 3 o’clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk
[Chorus]
E G#m
So if you’re lonely why'd you say you’re not lonely?
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7
Ahhh you’re a sil- ly girl, I know I hurt you so
B7
It's just like you to come and go oh
E G#m
Know me, no you don’t even know me
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7
You’re so sweet to try, oh my, you caught, my eye
B7
A girl like you's just irresistible
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
E
Well it’s a big big city and the lights are all out
G#m
But as much as I can do you know to figure you out
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
And I must confess my heart's in broken pieces and my head's a mess
E
And it's 4 in the morning and I’m walking alone
G#m
Beside the ghost of ever drinker who has ever done wrong
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
And it's you, woo ho, that's got me going crazy for the things you do
[Chorus]
E G#m
So if you’re crazy I don’t care you amaze me
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
But you’re a stup-id girl, oh me, oh my, you talk, I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
E G#m G#m7 Gm7 F#m7
Only a girl like you could be lonely and it’s a cry- ing shame
B7
if you would think the same A boy like me’s just irresistible
[Whistling]
D F#m Em A B
E G#m G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 B7
[Chorus]
E G#m
So if you’re lonely why'd you say you’re not lonely?
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7
Ahhh you’re a sil- ly girl, I know I hurt you so
B7
It's just like you to come and go oh
E G#m
Know me, no you don’t even know me
G#m7 Gm7 F#m7
You’re so sweet to try, oh my, you caught, my eye
B7
A girl like you's just irresistible
