Lonely Song

Lonely Song
G                     A
Well you heard about the time
  Am7                 D
I climbed the Empire State Building
       G                  A
And you heard about the time
Am7            D
I was in the insane asylum 
    G               C
But I bet you never knew
G            C
What I went through
    G             C
And what I had to do
      D                     G
Just to bring you - a lonely song
Instrumental break: G  C  G
Though I try to do whats right
Every day and every night
And when I think Ive won the fight
The monster comes back again
And I bet you never knew
What I went through
And what I had to do
Just to bring you - a lonely song
Instrumental break: G  C  G G7
C
If you listen very hard
You can hear the desperation
                  G
Of a sad and broken heart
    D
My heart
Well you heard about the times
But not all of it is true
And youve read the magazines
Ive been wounded by folklore
But I bet you never knew
What I went through
And what I had to do
Just to bring you - a lonely song
Well Ill tell you right now
Just to set the record straight
I never meant no harm
Or to generate so much hate
Cos I bet you never knew
What I went through
And what I had to do
Just to bring you - a lonely song
G7
