[Em] 2am; where do [Bm] I begin,
[C] Crying off my [G] face [Am] again.
[Em] The silent sound of [Bm] loneliness
[C] Wants to follow [G] me to [Am] bed.
I'm a [C] ghost of a [D] girl that I [G] want to be [Em] most.
I'm the [C] shell of a [D] girl that I [Em] used to know [Em] well.
[Em] Dancing slowly in an [Bm] empty room,
[C] Can the lonely take the [G] place of [Am] you?
I [Em] sing myself a quiet [Bm] lullaby.
[C] Let you go and let the [G] lonely in
To take my [Am] heart again.
[Em] Too afraid to go [Bm] inside
[C] For the pain of one more [G] loveless [Am] night.
[Em] But the loneliness will [Bm] stay with me
[C] And hold me til I [G] fall [Am] asleep.
I'm a [C] ghost of a [D] girl that I [G] want to be [Em] most.
I'm the [C] shell of a [D] girl that I [Em] used to know [Em] well.
[Em] Dancing slowly in an [Bm] empty room,
[C] Can the lonely take the [G] place of [Am] you?
I [Em] sing myself a quiet [Bm] lullaby.
[C] Let you go and let the [G] lonely in
To take my [Am] heart again.
[G] Broken pieces [Em] of
[G] A barely breathing [C] story
[G] Where there once was [Em] love
[G] Now there's only [Em] me and the [Bm] lonely.
[Em] Dancing slowly in an [Bm] empty room,
[C] Can the lonely take the [G] place of [Am] you?
I [Em] sing myself a quiet [Bm] lullaby.
[C] Let you go and let the [G] lonely in
To take my [Am] heart again.
