Chorus:
         Bm           Em7
Left the house years ago.
           A7                    D
Here's the story of a kid in his shadow
   Bm                   Em7    A7
He just didn't wanna be lonely.
D              Bm                Em7
 We started to fly, then she got sick
              A7                D
Pulled up and down and spun out real quick
    Bm                   Em7   A7
He just didn't wanna be lonely.
Verse 1:
D                Bm                Em7
 I pulled into a Wawa in Philly in 2000
           A7                             D
Blue Magic coming from the speaker at the gas pump
           Bm                       Em7
All Jersey kids, we never learn to pump gas
      A7                         D
So we sat there with the soundtrack
                Bm                      Em7
Now I'm on the way, in Firehouse, glory days
            A7               D
Parked the van, spun through vehicle
             Bm                         Em7
Then those drive-thru years really went slow
       A7                        D
Wawa lights in the rear view was making it
Chorus:
              Bm             Em7
We parked the van turned the Fan
            A7                        D
That's the story 'bout kids and their shadows
     Bm                   Em7
Who just didn't wanna be lonely
A7
 That's why I still sing
D                               Bm           Em7
 Glory to the ones who know the van, oh, oh, oh.
A7                        D
Glory to the ones on the edge
       Bm             Em7       A7
I just don't wanna be lonely, I just don't wanna be
Verse 2:
D                   Bm                          Em7
 I think some of us needed to chip away what we don't understand
A7             D
Slowly combing over it
 Bm            Em7
Slowly getting under it
        A7                D
'Cause there's no getting over it
             Bm                               Em7
So we drove back from the west with our new religion
         A7                      D
One-way tickets in heart and in hand
           Bm                            Em7
Said **** anything in my way, this is forever now
A7                         D                         Bm
 And just like that, everything changed (Cut off the lights)
                      Em7
I just don't wanna be lonely, I just don't wanna be
           A7                      D      Bm  Em7  A7
That's the thing about loving your shadow. haa  haa

Chorus:
D            Bm               Em7
 Years from then, I left the house
          A7          D
Saw her standing on a rooftop
             Bm                  Em7        A7
She said, "I just don't wanna be lonely" (I just don't wanna be)
D            Bm                 Em7        A7
 I said, "I just don't wanna be lonely" (I just don't wanna be)
D             Bm                  Em7     A7
 She said, "I just don't wanna be lonely".
