verse 1
B
You got me high on second fumes
B
Cold city nights and smoking rooms
G#m
I know your story off by heart
E
You fabricated every part
B
You talk too much then say nothing
B
I'm just the face that buys the drinks
G#m
Paris, L.A. and all that shit
E
You got it how you wanted it
Pre-Chorus
B
But mmm, then you say, then you say
That you need me for life
G#m E
But mmm, I'm okay, I'm okay this time
N.C. B
'Cause where were you when I was lonely?
B
Now you acting like you know me
G#m
There's 100 ways to tell you no
E
Another 100 more to let you go, go, go
B
Where were you when I was lonely?
B
You never saw but when you called me
G#m
I ain't gonna listen anymore
E
If you never want me when I'm lonely
Where were you when I was
B B G#m E
Lonely (x4)
Where were you when I was
B B G#m
Lonely (x3)
E
Lonely, lonely
verse 2
B
And I wish you weren't so beautiful
B
And I wish I was so usable
G#m
I know I gotta blame myself
E
'Cause you'd always blame somebody else
B
And you always act misunderstood
B
Like everyone in Hollywood
G#m
You're just as fake as all your friends
E
And I'm glad I won't see them again, ha, huh
Pre-Chorus
B
But mmm, then you say, then you say
That you need me for life
G#m E
But mmm, I'm okay, I'm okay this time
N.C. B
'Cause where were you when I was lonely?
B
Now you acting like you know me
G#m
There's 100 ways to tell you no
E
Another 100 more to let you go, go, go
B
Where were you when I was lonely?
B
You never saw but when you called me
G#m
I ain't gonna listen anymore
E
If you never want me when I'm lonely
Where were you when I was
B B G#m E
Lonely (x4)
Where were you when I was
B B G#m
Lonely (x3)

Lonely, lonely
