Intro: Am E F E 

                        Am 
Only buy this if you're lonely 
     F               E 
Only listen if you're blue 
                              Am 
If you're married and you are happy 
              F            E 
This song is not to do with you 
       Am 
If you listening at your work place 
        F                E 
Feeling small amongst the men 
       Am 
Do not sing this to your workmates 
     F             E      Am 
This song is not to do with them 
              E           Am 
But if you're sitting on a bar stool 
E                         Am 
Wondering what on earth to do 
F                       Dm 
Don't let them tell you no-one cares 
E 
This song's one especially for you 

If you are listening on your radio 

Smiling while you drive along 

Tune the band into another 

Because this song is not your song 

If you're working as FDJ 

Leave this record in its sleeve 

Cause this one's not for general airplay 

This song is for day she leaves 

And if you bought this and you're sinking 

And I think that you know who 

It matters not the mouth that's singing 

This song's one especially for you 
        Am 
So this goes out to the lonely 

So this goes out to the sad 
       Dm 
And it goes out to the only  
        E            Am 
One you felt you ever had 

If you're there in total darkness  

With a letter in your hand 

Do not bother with the letter 

Just Listen to the band 
Am 
So only buy this if you're lonely...
