		What will you do when you get lonely
		AbmAbm     G+G    A augmentedA    BB
		With nobody waiting by your side
		C# minorC#m     F#F#     BB        E MajorE
		You’ve been running and hiding much too long,
		C# minorC#m      F#F#        BB
		You know it’s just your foolish pride.

		AbmAbm          EbmEbm
		Tried to give you consolation,
		AbmAbm    G+G     A augmentedA    BB
		Your old man won’t let you down
		C# minorC#m  F#F#   BB         E MajorE
		Like a fool, I fell in love with you,

		Turned the whole world upside down


		CHORUS

		AbmAbm             EbmEbm
		Let’s make the best of the situation
		AbmAbm   G+G    A augmentedA  BB
		Before I fin’lly go insane.
		C# minorC#m     F#F#    BB      E MajorE
		Please don’t say we’ll never find a way
		C# minorC#m     F#F#       BB
		And tell me all my loves in vain


		CHORUS
