Verse 1:
D5 C5 C9' C5 G5 D5
well I'll bet my Maria's got an elbow full of lonely
C5 C9' C5 G5 D5
now here's a little prayer so that she might get some sleep
C5 C9' C5 G5 D5
don't let her face get skinned by the sun today
Am' A5 B5 D5
don't let it in when it comes knocking at your door
Chorus:
E5
loneliness
C5
loneliness
G5
loneliness
D5
oh oh
Verse 2:
sometimes you feel you've got the emptiest arms in the whole world
try to make sense but it always comes out absurd
sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers
don't let it in when it comes kicking at your door
Chorus:
E5
loneliness
C5
loneliness
G5
loneliness
D5
oh oh
C5
came kicking at my door
Verse 3:

she said I've really come to hate my body
G5 D5 E5 C5 C5
and all the things that it requires in this world
G5 D5 E5 C5 C5
I bet you're out there getting drunk with all your friends
A5 D5
and it'll get you in the bathroom of a Texaco
