Lonely Avenue
Ben Folds & Nick Hornby

D                                 A
Who'd look at that dump and see a home?
        Bm                G
Why not move in somewhere easy?
D                               A
Urinals where bedrooms ought to be
          Bm          G
Who could be bothered, really?

D                                A
You're really good at all that stuff
        Bm             G
The nuts and bolts of living
          D                  A  
Curtains, blinds and kitchen tables

A                              G/B
I've got no time for dates and plans
                G   A
No I'm too busy dreaming
A                                 G/B
You're the one with the attention span
                    G   Asus4  A
You're not the free wheeler

D          G
Practical, practical 
A
Amanda
Bm
Saved one life
G               A
And made two others

D                               A
Who'd look in here and see someone
     Bm       G
That might be worth redeeming
        D              A
Head and heart and soul fucked up
          Bm          G
Who could be bothered, really? 


A                               G/B
I've got no time for dates and plans
                G    A
No I'm too busy dreaming
A                                 G/B
You're the one with the attention span
           G   Asus4  A
