Am                         G
it's different when you're lonely
Am                   G
the whole world's in love
Am                           G
holding hands between barstools
Am                      G                 
and you're holding your tongue
Dm   F
hold on!
         C/G                   G
you're so fucked up, you're so fickle
Dm                  F
isn't this what you want?
  C/G           G
so simple? so single?

Am                                        G
but you're different when you're helpless
Am                          G
when the bar's closed their doors
Am                                     G
growing hostile towards your waitress
Am                       G
there's extra tips to ignore

Am

Am                                   
but it's different cause you're desperate
       G
begging mercy on the sidewalk
    Am
to a sea of last callers
        G
keep the conversation quick, and keep them interested
          Am
but you're different and they sense it
    G
your eyes can't disguise it
  Am
so glassy, half empty
G
ready to spill
Dm       F
so hold on
C/G          G
please don't leave yet
Dm               F
i can't go home alone
C/G             G
it doesn't go over so well
Dm F       C/G            G
so hold on just a little longer
Dm                   F
at least through the night
C/G            G
at least until morning

Am   G  Am  G   Am G

[oh! oh, oh oh!]

Am                                   G
but it's different when you're lonely
[NC]
the whole world's in love
Dm     F
hold on
C/G       G
hold on to me
Dm           F      C/G           G
i can hardly stand (much less the sight of myself)
Dm  F
so hold on
C/G           G
hold on tight dear
Dm                   F
put your foot on the gas
C/G              G   
get me the fuck out of here
