D
I stay out late 'cause I don't wanna feel lonely
Bm
This emptiness is starting to own me and
G                            A
I can't get out, I can't get out
D
I'll meet you later at that all night diner
Bm
She's trying hard, I'm trying not to fight her and
G                            A
I can't get out, I can't get out.
G            A
Cause all my friends got girlfriends
G                     A
Ther're telling me to put this thing to an end
G          A                          D            A                   G
But I just can't cause I know I'll be walking to a place where I can't stand...


Chorus
D             A              G*
There is some place left for you
D          F#m                G
Some place caught up in their youth
D                   A        G*
There is some place left for you


D
I buy you drinks cause I think that you love me
Bm
Turns out that you just want the company
G                        A
I'm feeling bad you look sad
D
I'm watching t.v on a late night Sunday
Bm
Thinking 'bout how I just turned you away
G                           A
I'm feeling bad you look so sad

G            A
Cause all my friends got girlfriends
G                     A
They're telling me to put this thing to an end
G          A                          D            A                   G
But I just can't cause I know I'll be walking to a place where I can't stand...

(Chorus)


Break: D Em F#m (x2)

D
And you say you can't have it
And you say you can't have it
And you say you can't have it
          Bm
Any other way but mine
I feel that we're losing time
      G
and I know you're lost along the way
      A
this time, this time this time  this time
