Lonely Ol' Night  (from the album "Scarecrow")
----------------

She calls me up and says "Baby, it's a lonely ol' night"
E		         Esus4                       E

I don't know, I'm just so scared and lonely all at the same time
		       Esus4                      E

Nobody told us it was gonna work out this way
A                 Asus4			   A

No no no no no
   Asus4

I guess they knew we'd work it out in our own way
E                      Esus4		      E    Esus4 E  Esus4 E

Can I put my arms around you?

Radio playing softly some singer's sad, sad song
E               Esus4                         E

He's singin about stanin' in the shadows of love
                             Esus4

I guess he feels awfully alone
                 E

She says "I know exactly what he means
A                 Asus4              A

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"
     Asus4

And it's a sad, sad, feelin' when you're livin' on those in betweens,
E                    Esus4	                         E
