Christina Perri - The Lonely

Gm0           D1
02am where do I begin,
D#2             A#3    D4
1Crying off my face again.
Gm5                  D6
2The silent sound of loneliness
D#7               A#8     D9
3Wants to follow me to bed.

      Gm10          F11           A#12          Gm13
5I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most.
        Gm14          F15           Gm16
6I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.

Gm17                   D18
8Dancing slowly in an empty room

9Can the lonely take the place of you?
  Gm22                  D23
10I sing myself a quiet lullaby
D#24                      A#25
11Let you go and let the lonely in
           D26
12To take my heart again
13
Gm27            D28
14Too afraid to go inside
D#29                        A#30        D31
15For the pain of one more loveless night.
Gm32                      D33
16But the loneliness will stay with me
D#34                 A#35    D36
17And hold me til I fall asleep.

29a barely breathing story
