Intro: B F# G#m E B F#


B F# G#m E B F# 
Goodbye four leaf clovers Hello gone awry
B F# G#m E B F#
Don't cry the fight ain't over Unless you let it pass you by
B F# G#m
I'm looking for a song to sing 
E F#
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
B F# G#m E F# 
I'm looking for my radio so I might find a heart to follow
B F# G#m
I've never been just longing for your loving
E F#
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
B F# G#m
I've never been just looking for a reason 
E F# B F# G#m E F#
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me


All that I have found in reason Is reason just to not believe
When all that you're left is treason It's treason just to let it be
I'm looking for a song to sing 
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
I'm looking for my radio so I might find a heart to follow
I've never been just longing for your loving
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
I've never been just looking for a reason 
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me

E B
These blue yonder dreams and second hand shoes
F# B
You're so far gone that you live to lose
E B G#m F#
It's too late to go home all alone
E B
You're the tar in that old cigar
F# B
And the worn out cable on a cable car
E B F#
And you're too tired to admit you've got to choose


I'm looking for a song to sing 
I'm looking for a friend to borrow
I'm looking for my radio so I might find a heart to follow
I've never been just longing for your loving
I've never been just wearing down to nothing
I've never been just looking for a reason 
So that maybe you'd be thinking of me

My heart keeps calling and I don't know just what to do

When you're not here I wish that I was there (repeat 2x)

You were falling and now I'm coming round again

I just want to see you a little more I just want to dream of you some more
I just want to see you a little more I just want to be with you some more

And you make me feel 
Won't you take me when you're not here

The wind it blows through the trees

Claiming those innocent leaves

You can love right, you can love wrong
C G
In this love song you can love long
Am Fmaj7
But if you love wrong it doesn't mean love's gone

Repeat intro riff

Mary was a young girl with a young girl's heart
All I can remember is I loved her from the start
I was hers forever she was mine too
But something's wrong cause now she's gone tell me what did I do

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Am G C F
It doesn't mean love's wrong just because you're feeling low
Am G C F
And it doesn't mean love's gone cause you feel like you want to let go
Am G C F
Well no one wrote in this book of love that you'd always know
Fmaj7 C G
I wish someone would have told me before

We talked about love a million times it seems
The words come out our lips like we forgot what it means
Ane we said we'd be together 'til death do us part
But we said those words with only half our heart

Repeat Chorus to end

Verse:
C F G
Just a picture and a feeling and a face
C F G
How could I forget your touch your warm embrace
C F G
And the shoes you wore with long black satin lace
C F G
As you walked into my mind

As I walked into this old forgotten hall
Just one look and I began to fall
Wish I could frame you and this feeling on the wall
To stare at 'til there is no time

Am F Am F G
And I waited for you Just hoping that you'd come back to me
Am F
And I waited for you

Chorus:
C F
Run, run, run away run
G 
Maybe someday I will find someone too
C F
Run, run, run away
G
Maybe some day, maybe some day

From a distance watched the flowers brush your cheek
As you read the words I wrote I couldn't speak
But now I lay here broken heart and blistered feet
As you're spinning 'round my mind
And I waited for you dreaming of you coming to me
And I waited for you

Repeat Chorus


Bridge:
F
When you weep you can know that it's all right
C 
As you sleep I'll just follow your door light
F G
We can talk just as long as you hold on tight

Just one breath is a million sighs

I can tell ever breath that you're breathing
I can feel every thought that you're thinking
We can talk it's a thousand years gone by
You and I

Rain is splashing up between her toes She doesn't know her own area code

Did you see the man with the cocaine load It's on sale for the price of your soul
And the man with a long trench coat Wish you could hide in a big black hole
Sell all your pain ten fold And you're crawling down a long, wrong road
Fitted for the box they mold All you're mixing is the heart they stole
Now they're looking at me to know My heart is pumping and my feet got cold

Lonely Again
Transcribed by Colleen Plein 

IMPORTANT - this song is TUNED DOWN! It's in D,
so every string should be tuned down a whole step.
You can either match your low E to the third D, or
just tune to the record if you want. Individual 
notes can be seen in the chord configurations
(i.e. it's usually EBGDAE, but now it's DAFCGD)

Chords: D G A Bm
D 0 0 0 0
A 0 0 0 0
F 1 6 8 9
C 2 7 9 11
G 2 7 9 11 
D 0 0 0 0

(these do make sense from a tuning standpoint - go with it!)
I'm not sure about the lyrics, I'll fix it if it's wrong!

Intro: D G A (4x)

Verse:

Whoah whoah sha-na-na whoah whoah sha-na-na

Whoah whoah, I think I'm feeling lonely again (2x)

Special look into my eyes forever and all time
stop loving me that way

But you and I we belong together again and I say

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

Special look into your eyes forever and all time
Start loving me again
